Abstract
An automated method and system for detecting electromigration violations in signal lines of an integrated circuit design to be fabricated is disclosed. The automated method and system checks conductive traces, vias and/or contacts that are used to route signals to and from various functional cells within the integrated circuit design against predetermined process rules to detect electromigration violations. The operation and effectiveness of the automated method and system are far superior to conventional manual approaches.
