Abstract

Aspects of the invention include configuring an initial tile with a plurality of portions, placing the initial tile at a location of the integrated circuit, and overlaying a clock mesh placement at the location. One or more of the plurality of portions of the initial tile that overlap with the clock mesh placement are determined, and the initial tile is modified, based on the determining the one or more of the plurality of portions, to generate a final tile. A design of the integrated circuit is finalized for fabrication based on using the final tile at the location, the final tile representing a plate of a metal insulator metal capacitor (MIMCAP).
