popularity

A technical paper titled “AutoCRAFT: Layout Automation for Custom Circuits in Advanced FinFET Technologies” was published by researchers at UT Austin and NVIDIA.

“This paper presents AutoCRAFT, an automatic layout generator targeting region-based layouts for advanced FinFET-based full-custom circuits. AutoCRAFT uses specialized place-and-route (P&R) algorithms to handle various design constraints while adhering to typical FinFET layout styles. Verified by comprehensive post-layout analyses, AutoCRAFT has achieved promising preliminary results in generating sign-off quality layouts for industrial benchmarks,” states the paper.
