Abstract:
A method includes calculating a maximum value of an on-die decoupling capacitor for an integrated circuit (IC) design based on a switching current defined by a number of simultaneously switching bits for the IC design. The method also includes calculating a total decoupling capacitance value offered by spacer cells in the IC design. The method further includes determining an optimal on-die decoupling capacitance value for the IC design as a function of the maximum value of the on-die decoupling capacitor and the total decoupling capacitance value offered by the spacer cells.

Claim (Index 12):
The method of  claim 11  and wherein:\n if the extra capacitor value is not greater than zero, then implementing the total decoupling capacitance value offered by the spacer cells in an actual layout of the IC design as a second die model and extracting a final die parasitic; or \n if the capacitor having the extra capacitor value is not customizable, then implementing the total decoupling capacitance value offered by the spacer cells plus the extra capacitance value in the actual layout of the IC design as the second die model and extracting the final die parasitic; or \n if the value of capacitance per unit area is determined, then implementing the total decoupling capacitance value offered by the spacer cells plus the value of capacitance per unit area in the actual layout of the IC design as the second die model and extracting the final die parasitic.
