Our Physical Design Expertise
At eSilicon, our values guide everything we do:
- 1. Floorplanning & Partitioning Efficiently partitioning the design to meet power, timing, and area constraints for optimal layout.
- 2. Placement Placing cells and macros in a way that minimizes wire length and congestion, improving speed and power efficiency.
- 3. Clock Tree Synthesis (CTS) Distributing clocks evenly across the chip, ensuring low skew and performance optimization.
- 4. Routing Connecting components with efficient routing methods to minimize delay and congestion while maintaining signal integrity.
- 5. Signal Integrity & Electromigration Analysis Ensuring clean signal paths and preventing performance degradation from noise or electromigration.
- 6. DRC & LVS Checks Validating that the design adheres to foundry rules and matches the logical design using Design Rule Checking (DRC) and Layout Versus Schematic (LVS) tools.
- 7. Power Grid & Voltage Drop Analysis Ensuring reliable power delivery and minimizing voltage drops across the design.
- 8. Design for Manufacturability (DFM) Optimizing the design for easier and more cost-effective fabrication.
