Even in the Cell-based Design method ,when the tech is .25 or below,
more and more physical design issues are involved,so the physical design
is realy a big issue.
that is the book our layout engineer use as reference, who I am working with. I read it at his desk several times!
I accept your warning, next time I will not write this kind of msg, but I feel not happy about this!
For cell based physical design, I think no related book. We could learn from EDA tools's
manual, there are so many concepts and experience in these manual. the best way it to
use tools to implement a example design.
