Abstract :
We propose a new layout synthesis with 2 dimensional transistor arrangement and a spontaneous process of 2 dimensional compaction and local re routing. The compaction enables jumping over objects, minimizing the number of contacts for wiring. We applied the layout synthesis to actual cell design and obtained comparable results to hand crafted design
