Abstract

A processing device generates a routing graph in accordance with a three-dimensional integrated circuit (3DIC) configuration of a 3DIC device. The processing device performs net routing with respect to the routing graph. The processing device determines, based on a net routing result of the net routing, whether at least one valid modified routing graph exists in view of an initial netlist corresponding to the 3DIC device. In response to determining that at least one valid modified routing graph exists, the processing device selects a modified routing graph from the at least one valid modified routing graph. The processing device generates, based on the modified routing graph, an updated netlist that satisfies the 3DIC configuration and is logically equivalent to the initial netlist.
