Abstract

See full text

A routing method for a multilayer circuit design layout that has a set of possible preferred local routing directions and a default preferred routing direction for each layer. The method receives a set of user specified constraints on routing directions for particular regions of the design layout. The method tessellates the available routing space into separate tiles and automatically defines a preferred local routing direction for each tile based on the user specified constraints. The set of user specified constraints includes user designated flows, locked etches, “etch keep-out” areas, user “planned” data, etc. A routing method for a multilayer design layout that receives a first set of user specified preferred routing directions for particular regions of the multilayer design layout. The method tessellates the available routing space into separate tiles and automatically defines a second preferred local routing direction for each tile based on the user specified preferred routing directions.
