A self-organization approach for layout floorplanning problems in analog IC design

  • In analog layout design, chip floorplans are usually still handcrafted by human experts. Particularly, the nondiscrete variability of block dimensions must be exploited thereby, which is a serious challenge for optimization-based algorithmic floorplanners. This paper presents a fundamentally new automation approach based on self-organization, in which floorplan blocks can autonomously move, rotate and deform themselves to jointly let compact results emerge from a synergistic flow of interaction. Our approach is able to minimize area and wirelength, supports nonslicing floorplan structures, can consider fully variable block dimensions, accounts for a fixed rectilinear boundary, and works absolutely deterministic. The approach is innovatively different from conventional, top-down oriented floorplanning algorithms.
