[0074] After obtaining the resistance and capacitance of the transistors in the target circuit, the parasitic parameters of the connecting wires, and the resistance and capacitance of the transistors in the standard circuit, the actual fan-out of the target circuit relative to the standard circuit can be calculated according to the resistance and capacitance of the transistors in the target circuit, the parasitic parameters of the connecting wires, and the resistance and capacitance of the transistors in the standard circuit.

[0075] In some embodiments, the first actual fan-out of the target circuit relative to the standard circuit can be calculated according to the resistance Rp1 and the capacitance Cp1 of the P-type transistor in the target circuit, the capacitance Cn1 of the N-type transistor, and the resistance Rp and the capacitance Cp of the P-type transistor in the standard circuit, the capacitance Cn of the N-type transistor, which can be understood as the fan-out of the P-type transistor in the target circuit relative to the P-type transistor in the standard circuit, so as to obtain the driving capability of the P-type transistor in the target circuit.

[0076] It should be noted that the size of the P-type transistor in the target circuit can be different from the size of the P-type transistor in the standard circuit, or can be the same. The sizes of the P-type transistors in the target circuit can be the same or different.

[0077] For example, the first ratio of the resistance Rp1 of the P-type transistor in the target circuit to the resistance Rp of the P-type transistor in the standard circuit can be calculated. The first capacitance is obtained by adding the capacitance C1 of the transistor in the target circuit and the parasitic capacitance C2, i.e., the first capacitance is obtained by adding the capacitance Cp1 of the P-type transistor in the target circuit, the capacitance Cn1 of the N-type transistor in the target circuit, and the parasitic capacitance C2. The second capacitance is obtained by adding the capacitance Cp of the P-type transistor in the standard circuit and the capacitance Cn of the N-type transistor in the standard circuit. The second ratio of the first capacitance to the second capacitance is calculated, and the product of the first ratio and the second ratio is taken as the first actual fan-out of the target circuit, so as to accurately obtain the fan-out of the P-type transistor in the target circuit.

[0078] The first actual fan-out (PMOS fan-out) = Rp1 / Rp x (C1+C2) / (Cp+Cn).

[0079] For example, when the P-type transistors in the target circuit are in parallel, the P-type transistor with the largest resistance can be selected as the first target P-type transistor from the P-type transistors in the target circuit, the resistance of the first target P-type transistor is taken as the resistance of the P-type transistor in the target circuit, the first ratio of the resistance of the first target P-type transistor to the resistance of the P-type transistor in the standard circuit is calculated, and the first ratio of the resistance of the P-type transistor in the target circuit to the resistance of the P-type transistor in the standard circuit is obtained. When the P-type transistors in the target circuit are in series, the resistances of the P-type transistors in the target circuit are added, and the added resistance is taken as the resistance of the P-type transistor in the target circuit. When there are P-type transistors in series and P-type transistors in parallel in the target circuit, the P-type transistor with the largest resistance is selected as the first target P-type transistor from the P-type transistors in parallel, and the resistance of each P-type transistor in series and the added resistance of the first target P-type transistor are taken as the resistance of the P-type transistor in the target circuit.

[0080] In other embodiments, the second actual fan-out of the target circuit relative to the standard circuit can be calculated according to the resistance Rn1 and the capacitance Cn1 of the N-type transistor, the capacitance Cp1 of the P-type transistor in the target circuit, and the resistance Rn and the capacitance Cn of the N-type transistor, and the capacitance Cp of the P-type transistor in the standard circuit, the second actual fan-out can be understood as the fan-out of the N-type transistor in the target circuit relative to the N-type transistor in the standard circuit, and thus the driving capability of the N-type transistor in the target circuit is obtained.

[0081] Similarly, the size of the N-type transistor in the target circuit can be different from or the same as the size of the N-type transistor in the standard circuit, and the sizes of the N-type transistors in the target circuit can be the same or different.

[0082] For example, the third ratio of the resistance Rn1 of the N-type transistor in the target circuit to the resistance Rn of the N-type transistor in the standard circuit can be calculated. The first capacitance is obtained by adding the capacitance C1 of the transistor in the target circuit and the parasitic capacitance C2, i.e., the first capacitance is obtained by adding the capacitance Cp1 of the P-type transistor in the target circuit, the capacitance Cn1 of the N-type transistor in the target circuit, and the parasitic capacitance C2. The second capacitance is obtained by adding the capacitance Cp of the P-type transistor and the capacitance Cn of the N-type transistor in the standard circuit. The second ratio of the first capacitance to the second capacitance is calculated, and the product of the third ratio and the second ratio is taken as the second actual fan-out of the target circuit, so that the fan-out of the N-type transistor in the target circuit is accurately obtained.

[0083] The second actual fan-out (NMOS fan-out) = Rn1 / Rn x (C1+C2) / (Cp+Cn).

[0084] For example, when the N-type transistors in the target circuit are in series, the resistance of the N-type transistors in the target circuit can be added to obtain a first resistance, and a third ratio of the first resistance to the resistance of the N-type transistor in the standard circuit is calculated to obtain the third ratio of the resistance of the N-type transistor in the target circuit to the resistance of the N-type transistor in the standard circuit; when the N-type transistors in the target circuit are in parallel, the N-type transistor with the largest resistance among the N-type transistors in the target circuit can be selected as a first target N-type transistor, and the resistance of the first target N-type transistor is taken as the resistance of the N-type transistor in the target circuit, and a third ratio of the resistance of the first target N-type transistor to the resistance of the N-type transistor in the standard circuit is calculated to obtain the third ratio of the resistance of the N-type transistor in the target circuit to the resistance of the N-type transistor in the standard circuit; when the N-type transistors in the target circuit are in series and in parallel, the N-type transistor with the largest resistance among the N-type transistors in parallel can be selected as a first target N-type transistor, and the resistance of each N-type transistor in series and the resistance of the first target N-type transistor after addition are taken as the resistance of the N-type transistor in the target circuit to obtain the third ratio of the resistance of the N-type transistor in the target circuit to the resistance of the N-type transistor in the standard circuit.

[0085] When the P-type transistors in the target circuit are in parallel and the N-type transistors are in series, the P-type transistor with the largest capacitance among the P-type transistors in the target circuit can be selected as a second target P-type transistor, and the first capacitance is obtained by adding the capacitance of the second target P-type transistor to the capacitance of each N-type transistor in the target circuit and the parasitic capacitance, thereby obtaining the first capacitance of the target circuit; when the N-type transistors in the target circuit are in parallel and the P-type transistors are in series, the N-type transistor with the largest capacitance among the N-type transistors in the target circuit can be selected as a second target N-type transistor, and the first capacitance is obtained by adding the capacitance of the second target N-type transistor to the capacitance of each P-type transistor in the target circuit and the parasitic capacitance, thereby obtaining the first capacitance of the target circuit; when the P-type transistors in the target circuit are in parallel and in series, the P-type transistor with the largest capacitance among the P-type transistors in parallel in the target circuit can be selected as a second target P-type transistor, and the N-type transistor with the largest capacitance among the N-type transistors in parallel in the target circuit can be selected as a second target N-type transistor, and the first capacitance is obtained by adding the capacitance of the second target P-type transistor, the capacitance of each P-type transistor in series in the target circuit, the capacitance of the second target N-type transistor and the capacitance of each N-type transistor in series in the target circuit and the parasitic capacitance, thereby obtaining the first capacitance of the target circuit.

[0086] Reference Figure 4As shown, the target circuit includes: a first P-type transistor M1, a second P-type transistor M2, a third P-type transistor M3, a first N-type transistor M4, a second N-type transistor M5 and a third N-type transistor M6. The gate of the first P-type transistor M1 and the first N-type transistor M4 receives a first control signal, the gate of the second P-type transistor M2 and the second N-type transistor M5 receives a second control signal, and the gate of the third P-type transistor M3 and the third N-type transistor M6 receives a third control signal.

[0087] The P-type transistor with the largest resistance can be selected from the first P-type transistor M1, the second P-type transistor M2 and the third P-type transistor M3 as the first target P-type transistor, and the P-type transistor with the largest capacitance can be selected as the second target P-type transistor. The resistance of the first target P-type transistor is taken as the resistance Rp1 of the P-type transistor in the target circuit, and the capacitance of the second target P-type transistor is taken as the capacitance Cp1 of the P-type transistor in the target circuit, then the resistance Rp1 of the P-type transistor in the target circuit = Max(RM1, RM2, RM3), and the capacitance Cp1 of the P-type transistor in the target circuit = Max(CM1, CM2, CM3). The first ratio of the resistance of the first target P-type transistor to the resistance Rp of the P-type transistor in the standard circuit is calculated, the first capacitance is obtained by adding the capacitance CM4 of the first N-type transistor, the capacitance CM5 of the second N-type transistor, the capacitance CM6 of the third N-type transistor and the parasitic capacitance C2 to the capacitance of the second target P-type transistor, the second capacitance is obtained by adding the capacitance Cp of the P-type transistor in the standard circuit to the capacitance Cn of the N-type transistor, and the second ratio of the first capacitance to the second capacitance is calculated. The product of the first ratio and the second ratio is taken as the first actual fan-out of the target circuit.

[0088] The first actual fan-out, i.e. the PMOS fan-out = Max(RM1, RM2, RM3) / Rp × (Max(CM1, CM2, CM3) + CM4 + CM5 + CM6) / (Cp + Cn).

[0089] Further, with reference to Figure 4The P-type transistor with the largest capacitance can be selected from the first P-type transistor M1, the second P-type transistor M2 and the third P-type transistor M3 as a second target P-type transistor, and the capacitance of the second target P-type transistor is taken as the capacitance Cp1 of the P-type transistor in the target circuit. The first resistance is obtained by adding the resistance RM4 of the first N-type transistor, the resistance RM5 of the second N-type transistor and the resistance RM6 of the third N-type transistor, and the first resistance is the resistance Rn1 of the N-type transistor in the target circuit. The third ratio of the first resistance to the resistance Rn of the N-type transistor in the standard circuit is calculated. The first capacitance is obtained by adding the capacitance CM4 of the first N-type transistor, the capacitance CM5 of the second N-type transistor, the capacitance CM6 of the third N-type transistor and the parasitic capacitance C2 to the capacitance of the second target P-type transistor. The second capacitance is obtained by adding the capacitance Cp of the P-type transistor in the standard circuit to the capacitance Cn of the N-type transistor. The second ratio of the first capacitance to the second capacitance is calculated. The product of the third ratio and the second ratio is taken as the second actual fan-out of the target circuit.

[0090] The second actual fan-out, i.e., the NMOS fan-out = (RM1+RM2+RM3) / Rp x (Max(CM1, CM2, CM3)+CM4+CM5+CM6) / (Cp+Cn).

[0091] S103, if the ratio of the actual fan-out to the standard fan-out does not reach the target ratio, the resistance and / or capacitance of the components in the target circuit are adjusted until the ratio of the actual fan-out to the standard fan-out reaches the target ratio, so that the actual fan-out of the target circuit reaches the target fan-out.

[0092] The components in the standard circuit have known sizes, known resistances and capacitances. Since the resistance and capacitance can determine the driving capability, i.e., the fan-out, and the driving capability determines the driving speed, the standard circuit has a standard fan-out and a known driving speed. Therefore, comparing the ratio of the actual fan-out of the target circuit to the standard fan-out of the standard circuit with the target ratio can also be understood as comparing the driving capability of the target circuit with the driving capability of the standard circuit, and comparing the driving speed of the target circuit with the driving speed of the standard circuit.

[0093] If the ratio of the actual fan-out of the target circuit to the standard fan-out of the standard circuit does not reach the target ratio, the target circuit does not reach the target fan-out. At this time, the resistance and / or capacitance of the components in the target circuit can be adjusted, and the actual fan-out of the adjusted target circuit is continuously calculated until the ratio of the actual fan-out of the target circuit to the standard fan-out reaches the target ratio, so that the actual fan-out of the target circuit reaches the target fan-out, thereby effectively adjusting the driving capability of the target circuit.

[0094] When the first actual fan-out of the target circuit is calculated according to the resistance and capacitance of the P-type transistor, the capacitance of the N-type transistor and the parasitic capacitance of the connecting wire in the target circuit, the resistance and capacitance of the P-type transistor, the capacitance of the N-type transistor in the standard circuit, the ratio of the first actual fan-out to the first standard fan-out of the standard circuit can be compared with the first target ratio, if the ratio of the first actual fan-out to the first standard fan-out reaches the first target ratio, the first actual fan-out of the target circuit reaches the first target fan-out, if the ratio of the first actual fan-out to the first standard fan-out does not reach the first target ratio, the first actual fan-out of the target circuit does not reach the first target fan-out, the resistance and / or capacitance of the transistor in the target circuit can be adjusted, for example, the resistance, capacitance of the P-type transistor and / or the capacitance of the N-type transistor in the target circuit is adjusted, so that the ratio of the first actual fan-out of the target circuit to the first standard fan-out of the standard circuit reaches the first target ratio, so that the first actual fan-out of the target circuit reaches the first target fan-out. It can be understood that the first actual fan-out of the target circuit is the fan-out of the P-type transistor in the target circuit, and the first standard fan-out of the standard circuit is the standard fan-out of the P-type transistor in the standard circuit.

[0095] When the second actual fan-out of the target circuit is calculated according to the resistance and capacitance of the N-type transistor, the capacitance of the P-type transistor and the parasitic capacitance of the connecting wire in the target circuit, the resistance and capacitance of the N-type transistor, the capacitance of the P-type transistor in the standard circuit, the ratio of the second actual fan-out to the second standard fan-out of the standard circuit can be compared with the second target ratio, if the ratio of the second actual fan-out to the second standard fan-out reaches the second target ratio, the second actual fan-out of the target circuit reaches the second target fan-out, if the ratio of the second actual fan-out to the second standard fan-out does not reach the second target ratio, the second actual fan-out of the target circuit does not reach the second target fan-out, the resistance and / or capacitance of the transistor in the target circuit can be adjusted, for example, the resistance, capacitance of the N-type transistor and / or the capacitance of the P-type transistor in the target circuit is adjusted, so that the ratio of the second actual fan-out of the target circuit to the second standard fan-out of the standard circuit reaches the second target ratio, so that the second actual fan-out of the target circuit reaches the second target fan-out. It can be understood that the second actual fan-out of the target circuit is the fan-out of the N-type transistor in the target circuit, and the second standard fan-out of the standard circuit is the standard fan-out of the N-type transistor in the standard circuit.

[0096] Therefore, it can be judged whether the actual fan-out reaches the target fan-out according to the ratio of the actual fan-out to the standard fan-out, and when the target fan-out is not reached, the capacitance and / or resistance of the transistor in the target circuit is adjusted to adjust the actual fan-out of the target circuit and the driving capability of the target circuit, so as to optimize the target circuit.
