Abstract
According to one implementation of the present disclosure, a method includes: generating a three-dimensional (3D) circuit design of an integrated circuit; and providing respective inter-tier connections coupling for first and second networks concurrently on the generated 3D circuit design. The first networks may include power or ground networks, while the second networks may include signal networks. In another implementation, a method includes: generating a three-dimensional (3D) circuit design of an integrated circuit; and providing inter-tier connections on the generated 3D circuit design during one of a placement stage, a partitioning stage, a clock tree synthesis (CTS) stage, or a routing stage of a physical circuit design procedure.
