Embodiments include herein are directed towards a method for electronic circuit design. Embodiments may include receiving, using a processor, an electronic design library including a plurality of design rules. Embodiments may include generating a routing graph, based upon, at least in part, the plurality of design rules, wherein the routing graph is a virtual representation of all of the available routing space for all routing layers associated with an electronic design. Embodiments may further include dynamically updating the routing graph at a graphical user interface, based upon, at least in part, a creation of a routing segment or a via at the graphical user interface.

System and method for routing in an electronic design

Embodiments according to the present disclosure relate to physically implementing an integrated circuit design while conforming to the requirements of complex color based track systems. In embodiments, the color based track systems can include irregularly spaced and non-uniform width colored tracks. These and other embodiments include a methodology to snap instances to a set of such tracks such that all pins/shapes in the instance result in valid locations. In some embodiments, the methodology further includes creating a geometric representation of the tracks to assist in the quick identification of matching tracks.
