Tsmc Standard Cell Naming Convention Page

| Code | Relative drive | |------|----------------| | X0.5 | Ultra-weak | | X1 | Unit drive | | X2 | 2× unit | | X4 | 4× unit | | X8 | 8× unit | | X16 | Max drive |

| Code | Meaning | |-----------|--------------------------------------------------------| | (none) | Regular height, standard pin placement | | _D | Double-height cell (for higher drive or reduced IR drop) | | _P | Pin access optimization (better routing) | | _F | Flip-pin (mirrored for abutment) | | _CK | Clock-specific cell (low jitter) | | _ISO | Isolation cell (power gating) | | _LS | Level shifter | | _RO | Ring oscillator cell (test) | In N7, N5, N3, TSMC uses multiple metal track heights. tsmc standard cell naming convention

INVX4 drives four times stronger than INVX1 . 3.3 Threshold Voltage (Vt) TSMC offers multiple Vt options to trade leakage power vs. speed. | Code | Relative drive | |------|----------------| | X0

| Code | Vt type | Speed | Leakage | |-------|----------------|-------|---------| | LVT | Low Vt | Fast | High | | RVT | Regular Vt | Medium| Medium | | HVT | High Vt | Slow | Low | | ULVT | Ultra-low Vt | Fastest| Highest | | ELVT | Extreme low Vt | (deprecated in some nodes) | | AOI21 | | Drive | X0.5

| Field | Example codes | |--------------|----------------------------------------| | Function | INV, NAND2, DFFR, AOI21 | | Drive | X0.5, X1, X2, X4, X8, X16 | | Vt | LVT, RVT, HVT, ULVT, ELVT | | Physical | _D, _P, _F, _CK, _ISO, _LS | | Track height | 6T, 7.5T, 9T (node dependent) |
