Abstract: To design a power supply network of a 3D semiconductor device employing through-silicon-via (TSV) technology, board wiring of each of boards of the device is determined. An initial network structure is created for the boards. A layout of power bumps and through-silicon-vias, using the initial network structure, is produced such that voltages of all nodes of wiring of the boards are greater than a reference voltage. A semiconductor device having boards, power bumps and through-silicon-vias conforming to the layout is fabricated. Thus, the numbers of the through-silicon-vias and the power bumps of the power supply network of the semiconductor device are minimal.
