文摘
- •
A heuristic-based voltage assignment algorithm is proposed for accuracy and CPU time balance.
- •
Virtual LSs are assigned in the netlist to reserve the required deadspace for LS placement.
- •
Voltage assignment and LS placement are operated iteratively to satisfy timing and physical constraints.
- •
The proposed algorithms are integrated into a highly efficient floorplanning algorithm for fast design convergence.
