Abstract

See full text

A method and system for representing metal wires in Very Large Scale Integration (VLSI) circuit design in a simplified form. A pair of metal wires is considered at a time. A plurality of Piece Wise Linear (PWL) equations is created to represent sides each of the pair of metal wires. The plurality of PWL equations is used to determine an equivalent coupling capacitance of the pair of metal wires. The pair of metal wires is reshaped to form a pair of reshaped metal wires that are electrically equivalent.
