Summary:An integrated circuit design tool includes a cell library. An entry in the cell library comprises a specification of the cell including a first transistor and a second transistor. The first transistor can include a first set of nanowires or 2D material strips arranged in parallel to form a channel structure, and a gate conductor disposed across the first set of nanowires or 2D material strips. The second transistor can include a second set of nanowires or 2D material strips arranged in parallel to form a channel structure, and a gate conductor disposed across the first set of nanowires or 2D material strips. The number of nanowires or 2D material strips in the first set can be different from the number of nanowires or 2D material strips in the second set, so that the drive power of the individual transistors can be set with finer granularity.
