Abstract
Various embodiments described herein provide for a method and system for relative placement of components for a circuit layout by retrieving a data structure of a first circuit design, the data structure including a location of each component, determining a component characteristic for each component, and selecting a first group of two or more components having a shared component characteristic. Additionally, the method and system can instantiate a second circuit design and retrieve the data structure after the second circuit design is instantiated. The method and system include, for the second circuit design, calculating a first scaling factor and scaling each of the components of the first group from the first circuit design and placing the first group at a location in the second circuit design corresponding to location of the first group within the first circuit design.
