Abstract

A power planning phase module, a placement phase module, and a routing phase module are provided that can replace, supplement, or enhance existing electronic design automation (EDA) software tools. The power planning phase module adds distributed power sources and a network of switching elements to the power frame or ring assigned to regions of a chip (that may be identified during a floor planning stage). The placement phase module optimizes a number and type of cells attached to each power source of the distributed power sources already added or to be added during the power planning phase. The routing phase module optimizes routing length to, for example, mask power consumption.
