dc.description.abstract | 3D IC design is one of the challenging problems of today. 3D partitioning solutions can significantly impact manufacturability and performance of a circuit. In this work, a 3D partitioning technique is developed that reduces the number of TSVs by using force directed placement technique. A circuit is partitioned into several layers and a force directed placement problem is solved to find the optimal locations of the partitions. This partitioning solution is improved by using a proposed force-based simulated annealing technique. The proposed technique is tested on ISPD04 circuits, and shows up to 20% reduction in the number of TSVs. | en_US |
