Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a method for routing in an electronic circuit design. The method may include assigning a plurality of rats interconnecting one or more terminals associated with a layout of the electronic circuit design to a bundle. The method may also include generating an independent breakout of the plurality of rats from a source end and a target end of the bundle. The method may further include sequencing the plurality of rats within the assigned bundle to generate a defined sequence of rats within the assigned bundle based upon, at least in part, the source end of the bundle. The method may additionally include generating a costed sequence breakout at the target end of the bundle, based upon, at least in part, a costed sequence analysis. The method may also include determining if the costed sequence breakout meets at least one criteria associated with the electronic design.
