A design structure for reducing coupling between wires of an electronic circuit is proposed, wherein sets of nets are classified according to their coupling characteristics, and spacing between wires assigned to the sets of nets is chosen according to the coupling characteristics.

Structure for an integrated circuit design for reducing coupling between wires of an electronic circuit

A routing method for reducing coupling between wires of an electronic circuit is proposed, wherein sets of nets are classified according to their coupling characteristics, and spacing between wires assigned to the sets of nets is chosen according to the coupling characteristics.

Reducing coupling between wires of an electronic circuit

A method, system, and computer program product for coupled noise timing violation avoidance in detailed routing of an integrated circuit design are provided. The method includes calculating a noise induced timing violation sensitivity (NITVS) metric for nets in the integrated circuit design as a measure of sensitivity to a timing violation relative to a coupled noise delay adder, prioritizing routing isolation as a function of the NITVS metric for each of the nets to avoid coupled noise timing violations, and outputting the routing isolation priority.
