  • System and method for auto-routing jog elimination
    Patent number: 7530041
    Abstract: A method for automatic wire size modification comprising the steps of routing a wire to a source; detecting a first size differential between the wire and the source by calculating a width difference between a width of the wire and a width of the source, and dividing the width difference by the width of the wire; and modifying a size of the wire if the first size differential is less than a maximum width percentage and if a length of the source is less than a length range specified by a user.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 20, 2008
    Date of Patent: May 5, 2009
    Assignee: International Business Machines Corporation
