Abstract

An integrated circuit (IC) structure includes a plurality of driver pins at a driver pin level and oriented in a driver pin direction. Each layer of a plurality of layers of metal segment arrays includes two parallel metal segments oriented in a layer direction. The layer direction of a lowermost layer is perpendicular to the driver pin direction, and the layer direction of each additional layer is perpendicular to the layer direction of a layer immediately below the additional layer. The IC structure also includes a plurality of via arrays, each via array including two vias positioned at locations where one or more metal segments of a corresponding overlying layer overlap one or more of the two metal segments of a layer immediately below the via array or the plurality of driver pins.
