Full-Chip Nanometer Routing Techniques

by Tsung-Yi Ho, Sao-Jie Chen, Yao-Wen Chang

Book Overview

At 90 nm, wires account for nearly 75% of the total delay in a circuit. Even more insidious, however, is that among nearly 40% of these nets, more than 50% of their total net capacitance are attributed to the cross-coupling capacitance between neighboring signals. At this point a new design and optimization paradigm based on real wires is required. Nanometer routers must prevent and correct these effects on-the-fly in order to reach timing closure...
