Abstract
A method of generating an integrated circuit includes: placing a plurality of electronic components on a layout floor plan to generate a placing layout of the integrated circuit; forming a clock tree upon the placing layout to generate a synthesis layout of the integrated circuit; routing the synthesis layout to generate a routed layout of the integrated circuit; performing a DRC process upon the routed layout to obtain a layout region with a systematic DRC violation; generating a plurality of prediction gains of the layout region according to a plurality of placement recipes respectively; and generating an adjusted routing layout of the integrated circuit by adjusting the layout region with the systematic DRC violation according to a target placement recipe in the plurality of placement recipes.
