Method of designing wiring for power sources in a semiconductor chip, and a computer product

摘要

In a higher layer, power source wiring is provisionally provided between a logic-decided functional block and the logic-undecided functional block. Then, a resistor network of the power source wiring within the logic-undecided functional block is prepared by assuming that a current source has been connected to a power source terminal of the logic-undecided functional block. A resistor network of a total power source wiring in the higher layer is prepared by using this local resistor network. An optimum width of the power source wiring is determined by analyzing this resistor network. Based on the width, the power source wiring of the higher layer is rewired.
