Abstract
A method for program routing a circuit with at least a first and second voltages in a single layer is disclosed, which comprises defining a first and second layer types corresponding to the first and second voltages, respectively, specifying at least one first attribute for the first layer type and at least one second attribute for the second layer type, specifying at least one first net with a first voltage and at least one second net with a second voltage, reading the voltage information associated with the first net and the second net by a computer program, routing at least one first polygon for the first net onto the first layer type with the first attribute by the computer program, and routing at least one second polygon for the second net onto the second layer type with the second attribute by the same computer program.
