    • Methods, systems, program products are disclosed that control placement of dummy shapes (200) about sensitive circuit elements (172) such that the dummy shapes are at least substantially similar for each circuit element even though the dummy shapes are auto-generated. In one embodiment, the invention includes providing dummy shape pattern pitch information (XP, YP) to a designer, and allowing placement of circuit elements at integer multiples of one or more of the pitches such that the dummy shapes are at least substantially similar about each instance of the circuit element. Another embodiment includes allowing placement of a marker (300) about a circuit element (372) to indicate an area in which dummy shapes (306) are to be substantially identical, and then using the marker to place the circuit element. Dummy shapes generated within the marker ensure substantially identical dummy shapes for each instance of the circuit element. The invention also includes the integrated circuits formed.

    • At a particular stage in design of an integrated circuit, DFM improvements are identified which might conflict with design requirements applicable during a subsequent stage in the design flow. These DFM improvements are "reserved" that is, they are not implemented right away. However, an instance of a DFM-optimized version of this portion of the design is generated, characterized and stored. Meta information is associated with the reserved DFM improvements, for example locations in the design which correspond to the reserved DFM improvements are tagged. If, after the subsequent stage in the design flow, processing of the meta­information (tags) shows that the reserved DFM improvement does not actually conflict with the potentially-conflicting design requirement, the corresponding reserved DFM improvement is implemented, for example, by swapping-in the stored instance of the DFM-optimized version of this portion of the design.
    • 在集成电路设计的特定阶段,识别出DFM改进可能与设计流程中后续阶段适用的设计要求相冲突。 这些DFM的改进是“保留”的,即它们不是立即实现的。 然而,生成,表征和存储设计的这部分的DFM优化版本的实例。 元信息与保留的DFM改进相关联,例如设计中对应于保留的DFM改进的位置被标记。 如果在设计流程的后续阶段,元信息(标签)的处理表明保留的DFM改进实际上并不与潜在冲突的设计要求冲突,则相应的保留的DFM改进被实现,例如,通过交换 - 在存储的DFM优化版本的这个部分设计的实例中。

    • Systems and methods for placement of dummy metal fills while preventing disturbance of device matching and optionally limiting capacitance increase are disclosed. A computer-automated method for locating dummy fills in an integrated circuit fabrication process generally comprises receiving as input layout of the integrated circuit and specification of device matching for the integrated circuit and locating the dummy fills in the integrated circuit according to dummy rules while preserving device matching. Locating the dummy fills may include locating the dummy fills along the at least one axis of symmetry where device matching is along an axis of symmetry and locating the dummy fills so as to preserve matching of the repeated elements where device matching is repeated matched elements. The method may also include designating at least one net of the integrated circuit as a critical net, the critical nets being only a subset of all nets of the integrated circuit, identifying metal conductors corresponding to each designated critical net from the layout file, and delineating a net blocking exclusion zone extending a distance of a minimum net blocking distance (NBD) from the metal conductor for each metal conductor identified, wherein the step of locating locates the dummy fills outside of the net blocking exclusion zone.
