Abstract
Disclosed are embodiments of an interconnection array for a circuit. The interconnection array comprises a victim net that is positioned parallel to and adjacent to sections of multiple crossed aggressor nets, thereby, minimizing the exposure of the circuit to delay or false switching as a result of coupling capacitance. Also, disclosed are embodiments of an associated method of re-routing an interconnection array that incorporates identifying a victim net and at least two aggressor nets and crossing the aggressor nets so that sections of multiple aggressor nets are positioned parallel to and adjacent to the victim net in order to minimizes the impact of coupling capacitance on the victim net with minimal changes to the wiring environment.
