The reliable Power Delivery Network (PDN) design is a challenging aspect in Three-Dimensional-Integrated-Circuits (3D-ICs). In order to ensure the robustness of the 3D PDN, the number and the locations of the Power/Ground (P/G) Through-Silicon-Vias (TSVs) should be carefully planned. Non-regular P/G TSV placement has superior performance compared to the regular one in terms of TSV count. However, the corresponding deadspace optimization is necessary, which complicates the traditional 3D floorplanning. In this work, we propose an efficient deadspace-aware P/G TSV planning combined with the 3D floorplanning to simultaneously place the 2D blocks and P/G TSVs to minimize the total wirelength and the number of inserted TSVs under IR-drop and fixed-outline constraints. |
