A power mesh structure for an integrated circuit is provided. A power switch cell is installed on the chip of the integrated circuit to control the switching operations of the power domain. The power meshes of the power mesh structure is specially designed. The power wires with different electrical properties are arranged in the same column or the same row to reduce the layout area of the power mesh on the material layer.

Power mesh structure for integrated circuit

A power distribution network adapted to provide power to a plurality of components in an integrated circuit is provided. The power distribution network includes a power distribution trunk path, a plurality of first power distribution branch paths, and a plurality of second power distribution branch paths. The power distribution trunk path is used for transmitting the power. A long axis direction of the power distribution trunk path is a first direction. The first power distribution branch paths and the second power distribution branch paths are electrically connected to the power distribution trunk path. A long axis direction of the first power distribution branch paths is a second direction different from the first direction. A long axis direction of the second power distribution branch paths is a third direction different from the first direction and the second direction.
