一般图拓扑的电源/地线线宽优化设计

Automatic Sizing of Power/Ground(P/G) Networks Having General Graph Topology

  • 摘要: 电源/地线(P/G)线宽优化是高性能超大规模集成电路(VLSI)物理设计的重要环节.文中通过研究一般图拓扑的P/G线宽优化的电路模型和数学模型,给出了基于单个节点的线宽优化的必要条件等几个有意义的性质,并在此基础上提出了P/G线宽优化的初始构造和优化的新算法.该算法避免了其它算法的许多冗余搜索,不需复杂的网络及敏感度分析.仿真结果表明,该算法得到相近的优化结果所需计算时间显著减少,达50%.此外,该算法还能同时适用于树及一般图等各种拓扑结构的P/G线网.

     

    Abstract: The automatic sizing of Power/Ground (P/G) nets is one of the most critical stage in VLSI physical design.In this paper,we first give some new properties about the optimum P/ G nets having general graph topology,and based on which we present an effective algorithm to find the optimum wire-width of P/G nets.Our algorithm is fast by successfully avoiding the redundant search and the time-consuming net analysis.Experimental results show that our algorithm is nearly 50% faster than other available algorithms,and it is universally applicable for both the tree and the general graph topology.
