Abstract
A method of automatic placement for an arrayed-element device, which automatically generates a schematic script for the arrayed-element device based on topological specifications, a netlist, and other parameters of the arrayed-element device, is disclosed. The generated schematic script can be loaded into an automatic place and route (P&R) tool to perform an automatic P&R which is available for RC extraction if completed so that time frame required by manual P&R and file conversion can be significantly reduced.
