  • Electrical routing through fixed sized module and variable sized channel grids
    Patent number: 5636129
    Abstract: A method for determining global electrical connection paths between connection pins distributed at predetermined locations on substantially rectangular electrical modules located in non-overlapping orientations on the surface of a semiconductor chip with predetermined channels between adjacent ones of the modules, includes dividing the modules into rectangular grid cells of predetermined dimensions and the predetermined channels into additional grid cells including rectangular channel regions having prespecified dimension ranges and sharing boundary segments with adjacent module derived grid cells. The routing method includes restricting routing to not more than a single boundary segment between a module grid cells and adjacent channel grid cells, and between a channel grid cell and adjacent module grid cells.
