  • Producing a net topology pattern as a constraint upon routing of signal paths in an integrated circuit design
    Patent number: 8806405
    Abstract: A method is provided to produce a constraint information for use to implement a routing process used to generate routing signal lines in an integrated circuit design comprising: producing a net topology pattern structure that corresponds to a logical net that is associated with at least two instance item structures of at least one functional design, wherein the net topology pattern structure is associated with the at least two instance item structures and includes multiple constituent structures that indicate at least one constraint upon physical implementation of the logical net structure.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 31, 2012
    Date of Patent: August 12, 2014
    Assignee: Cadence Design Systems, Inc.
    Inventors: Regis Colwell, Arnold Ginetti, Khalid ElGalaind, Thomas Jordan, Jose A. Martinez, Jeffrey Markham, Steven Riley, Chung-Do Yang
