Abstract:

Routability has always been a very challenging issue in Very Large Scale Integrated (VLSI) circuit design. The routability is considered in track assignment so that the global routing results can better match the requirements of detailed routing. However, existing heuristic track assignment algorithms are prone to local optimality, which cannot provide the accurate routability estimation. To overcome this limitation, we propose a scalable parallel Integer Linear Programming (ILP)-based track assignment algorithm, called SPTA, which employs a two-stage partition strategy. First, by taking into account both the global and local nets, all wires are assigned to tracks, making full use of the information from the global routing results. Second, an efficient ILP model for track assignment is proposed to minimize the overlap between iroutes1, thus significantly improving routability. Third, a two-stage partition strategy is designed to reduce the runtime. Finally, a panel-subpanel-level parallelism is proposed to further speed up the algorithm without sacrificing the quality of the solutions. Experimental results show that SPTA has a better routability estimation compared with the existing algorithms. © 2022 IEEE.
