Abstract

Disclosed are gate-tie-down (GTD) cells that utilize a backside power delivery scheme, where metal wires that deliver power are provided on the back of the die. The backside power may be delivered to the gates through S/Ds and through frontside contacts. As a result, ultra-low height standard cell can be enabled. Also higher area scaling may be achieved. Further, performance and power gain can be maximized.
