Abstract:
In a method of supporting a layout design, a net list of an integrated circuit is divided into net lists of clock domain circuit aggregations. A timing constraint is generated to each of the clock domain circuit aggregations. An arrangement order of the clock domain circuit aggregations is determined to satisfy the timing constraint. A layout of the integrated circuit is generated by carrying out arrangement and wiring of the clock domain circuit aggregations based on the arrangement order.
