Title
Practical ILP-based routing of standard cells
Abstract
This paper proposes a two-stage transistor routing approach that synergizes the merits of channel routing and integer linear programming for CMOS standard cells. It can route 185 cells in 611 seconds. About 21% of cells obtained by our approach have smaller wire length than their handcrafted counterparts. Only 11% of cells use more vias than their handcrafted counterparts. Our router completes routing of many cells that cannot be routed by an industrial one.
