  • Abstract
    A new strategy for layout synthesis is presented. The general gate array design system (GGADS) system which uses the strategy has been implemented and is capable of designing layouts for configurable gate array master structures. GGADS evaluates the effectiveness of layouts on gate array master. It supports the development of special purpose gate array master structures. GGADS is suitable for the layout of circuits which are not tractable by library-based approaches, e.g., ECL logic
