Logic density
| Core average logic cells per mm² | <1k (<1% of buffer maximum) |
|---|---|
| Densest mm² logic cells per mm² | 2k (3% of buffer maximum) |
| Core covered by logic | <1% |
| Transistor density transistors per mm² | 23k average, 189k in the mm² with the most logic cells |
Every figure here is measured from the public layout, the same way for every design on the run: see data and method, and how its designs used the process.

Process features
Which parts of the GF180MCU process this design uses: its transistor voltages and where they come from, its gate oxides, and any devices drawn by hand outside the standard cells, SRAM and pads.
| 5 V | 7t-5V standard cells |
|---|---|
| Gate oxides | Thick only (5 V/6 V) in the design itself |
Where the area went
How this design's area splits between logic cells, filler and tap cells, other and outside the user area.
- Logic cells 0.04 mm² (<1%)
- Filler and tap cells 0.91 mm² (5%)
- Other 8.04 mm² (40%)
- Outside the user area 11.12 mm² (55%)

Logic density map
Logic cells per mm² in each square millimetre of the die. Hatched outlines are SRAM macros; the red outline is the densest mm² that avoids them (2k logic cells per mm²), found by sliding a 1 mm square over the die in 0.1 mm steps, so it can straddle the fixed squares and find more than any one of them. Squares at the edges are partial, so they read low.
