Abstract

A method for fabricating a semiconductor structure is provided. The method includes assigning a set of parameter values to a set of size parameters of a unit cell of the integrated circuit in a unit cell schematic of the unit cell according to a predetermined criterion, wherein the unit cell characterized by the set of parameter values has a circuit characteristic meeting the predetermined criterion; generating a unit cell layout of the unit cell according to the unit cell schematic; generating a circuit layout comprising a plurality of replicas of the unit cell layout, the replicas of the unit cell layout being arranged in correspondence with circuit blocks in a circuit floorplan of the integrated circuit, respectively; and fabricating the integrated circuit according to the circuit layout.
