Abstract
Various example embodiments are directed to methods and apparatuses for implementing a circuit design within an integrated circuit (IC) package. A respective capacitance is determined for each die contact of a circuit design. A respective target inductance range is selected for each of the plurality of die contacts based on the determined capacitance. A segmentation of the circuit design is determined as a function of the target inductance ranges. The segmentation defines an implementation of the circuit design on a plurality of IC dies. The IC dies are placed at respective locations on the substrate, based on the resulting inductances of connections (e.g., conductive traces) between the die contacts and terminals of the IC package.
