  • Spreading of one digital logic module cells is a requirement. This works as light detector cells. But it was leading to routing congestion and also power consumption is more. Experimented with different spreading techniques like first module wise alone spreading and overall block. After some floor-planning and placement iterations and optimized the design for congestion and timing the results. Final results were found to be satisfactory in meeting the timing, power and other design constraints.
