- - METHOD OF RESOLVING MULTI-PATTERNED COLOR CONFLICTS FOR MULTI-ROW LOGIC CELLS

摘要

The present invention relates to a method for resolving multi-patterned color conflicts for multi-row logic cells. According to an embodiment of the present invention, the method comprises the following steps: sorting out circuit cells into colorable sub-portions; determining whether the incompatible colorable sub-portions can be re-colored; and directing the fact that the incompatible colorable sub-portions can be re-colored at least partially. Each circuit cell may include at least one or more colorable sub-portions.
