Abstract
A system having design tools and methods for using the same in designing an integrated circuit (IC) are described. In one embodiment, an IC design system, the system comprises one or more processors; and a non-transitory computer readable medium connected to the one or more processors, wherein the non-transitory computer readable medium is configured to store: a first design tool module configured to determine one or more design specifications for a core of an integrated circuit (IC), the IC comprising a plurality of transistors and other components, and a plurality of interconnects between the transistors and the other components, wherein the plurality of transistors and the other components and the plurality of interconnects are formed on a single die, and a second design tool module configured to determine one or more design specifications for a periphery of the IC, the second tool to function independently of the first tool and operable to design constraints for interface placement and configuration of an interface between the core and the periphery of IC.
