1. A method, performing by a computing device, comprising the steps of: generating a behavioral representation of a design for an integrated circuit, wherein the behavioral representation comprises a register transfer level (RTL) description of a 1×N building block of an integrated circuit design; generating a physical design representation based on the behavioral representation, wherein the physical design representation comprises one of a flat netlist, a hierarchical netlist, or a partially flattened netlist; generating, via a 1×N compilation, a logical representation of the integrated circuit design via the physical design representation, wherein the logical representation comprises one or more logic gates; and checking for at least one of a capacitance violation, a drive strength requirement, or a physical design rule requirement for at least one of the physical design representation or the logical representation.
