Custom IC design requires if the circuit has to be designed to
meet the maximum possible performance requirements.
In this case the transistor parameters are tuned to meet the
required overall circuit performance
This kind of design methodology is specifically used
in analog design , mixed signals design and RF design

What is latchup? Explain the methods used to prevent it?
You have three adjacent parallel metal lines. Two out of phase signals pass through the outer two metal lines. Draw the waveforms in the centre metal line due to interference. Now, draw the signals if the signals in outer metal lines are in phase with each other
