See full text

A method for routing a circuit device having an array of bump pads includes identifying a routing direction associated with a bump, generating a power strap and a ground strap based on the routing direction, forming a routing channel in accordance with the routing direction, setting a start point and an endpoint in the routing channel, and connecting the start point and the endpoint using a wire within the routing channel. The method further includes placing the start point to a power or ground strap in response to a target power/ground ratio.
