Abstract
Various implementations described herein refer to a method for providing a cell layout with a power grid line, track lines and vias. The method may include determining a cell placement pitch from architecture rules related to the cell layout. The method may include converting spacing for the vias in terms of the cell placement pitch to identify free regions on the track lines for placement of the vias. The method may include determining boundaries for the free regions based on the spacing of the vias from the power grid line and the track lines.
