Abstract

An integrated circuit layout having a mixed track standard cell configuration that having a mixed track standard cell configuration that includes first well regions of a predetermined height and second well regions of a predetermined height, the first and second well regions are arranged within a substrate, first conductors and second conductors arranged and extending across regions of corresponding first and second well regions, and a plurality of standard cells in multiple rows. The standard cells include a first substantially equal to standard cell having a first cell height substantially equal to I(X+Y)+X or Y, wherein X is one half the predetermined height of the first well region, Y is one half the predetermined height of the second well region, and I is a positive integer.
