Abstract:
The disclosed embodiments are directed to systems and method for floorplanning an integrated circuit design using a mix of 2D and 3D blocks that provide a significant improvement over existing 3D design methodologies. The disclosed embodiments provide better floorplan solutions that further minimize wirelength and improve the overall power/performance envelope of the designs. The disclosed methodology may be used to construct new 3D IP blocks to be used in designs that are built using monolithic 3D integration technology.
