Integrated circuit with improved interconnect routing and associated methods

摘要

An integrated circuit (IC) includes a circuit, an encoder, and a decoder. The circuit is coupled to circuitry in the IC via a first set of interconnect fabricated using a metal layer. The encoder encodes a plurality of address lines to provide a plurality of encoded address lines. The decoder decodes the plurality of address lines. The plurality of encoded address lines are routed using a second set of interconnect fabricated using the metal layer.
