What is P&R?

P&R typically refers to Placement and Routing in the context of electronic design automation (EDA). It's a crucial step in the physical design of integrated circuits (ICs), where pre-designed components (cells) are placed on the chip layout, and then the connections between these components are routed to create the desired functionality. This process aims to minimize area, wire length, power consumption, and signal delay while satisfying design rules.
