Abstract

We present a method for the automatic placement of substrate contacts by controlling their influence on circuit performance. This guarantees a layout that complies with the circuit's specification concerning substrate coupling. The algorithm minimizes the substrate contact area. Our method can be applied at transistor and block level. An example at block level is presented.
