Abstract:
An apparatus including a memory storing instructions and a processor executing the instructions to perform a method including: performing error processing of an initial design file layout; detecting a tip-to-tip (T2T) structure design violation at a design cell boundary for a metal layer above (Ma) a via (Vx) at a tip of the Ma for the initial design file layout for a semiconductor structure based on a library of pattern rules; retargeting the Vx for generating a resulting design file layout of the semiconductor structure; and generating a physical semiconductor structure based on the resulting design file layout of the semiconductor structure.

Claim (Index 19):
The system of  claim 18 , wherein:\n upon a determination that the design values of the Mb are not at the second metal LE, the second processor determine the Mb available space at a common edge (E_VxMb) between the Mb and the Vx; and upon a determination that the Mb available space at E_VxMb is greater than a minimum allowable space for the Mb, the second processor jogs design values for the Mb, and the third processor retargets design values for the Vx using the retargeting tables and executes a design process or using a first set of predetermined design values, otherwise upon the second processor determining that the Ma available space at a common edge (E_VxMa) between the Ma and the Vx is greater than a minimum allowable space for the Ma, the second processor jogs design values for the Ma, and the third processor retargets the design values for the Vx using the retargeting tables and executing the design process or using a second set of predetermined design values.
