Abstract

A system for designing an integrated circuit having pre-layout RC information is disclosed. The system includes: at least one processor; and at least one memory including computer program code for one or more programs, the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the system to: generate current and voltage information for a schematic having device array layout constraint included; create interconnection topology patterns and realizing route for the schematic; generate RC information according to the route; and determine if the schematic having the device array layout constraint and the RC information included violates one or more of the system design rule constraints. An associated method and a computer readable medium are also disclosed.
