  • Abstract
    There are generally two options available to integrated circuit (IC) designers to physically implement their designs: synthesis/place and route design and custom circuit design. Each design approach has its advantages and draw backs. This paper will cover a hybrid design flow using concepts from both areas to give us a quick design turn around time while allowing control on custom placement and routing.
