Abstract
Multi version library cell handling and integrated circuit structures fabricated therefrom are described. In an example, an integrated circuit structure includes a plurality of gate lines parallel along a first direction of a substrate and having a pitch along a second direction orthogonal to the first direction. A first version of a cell type is over a first portion of the plurality of gate lines, the first version of the cell type including a first plurality of interconnect lines having a second pitch along the second direction, the second pitch less than the first pitch.
