Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for performing physical synthesis with an overall placement process. One of the methods includes receiving an initial netlist of a circuit design for an IC. A global placement process is performed that assigns to some components in the initial netlist a respective initial location on the IC. One or more physical synthesis processes are performed to generate a modified netlist before assigning a final location to all components in the circuit design by an overall placement process. A subsequent placement process is performed to assign a final location on the IC to all components in the modified netlist.
