ABSTRACT:
A system and method for implementing logic changes in integrated circuits (ICs). In a preferred embodiment, donor logic elements are taken from donator logic paths. The donated cells are implemented into a logic path altered by an ECO. The donated cell is replaced by spare cells. Timing analysis is done to ensure all logic paths are timing closed.
