Problems solved by technology

[0007] However, since the power density diagram only considers the ideal power distribution of a certain device layer, and does not consider the influence of heat sources between device layers, high power density devices will appear in the vertical area of ​​a stack during floorplanning / layout

Abstract

The invention discloses a hierarchical heat driving floor planning and layout method which comprises the following steps of: firstly, arranging a plurality of modules according to a power sequence, and forming a module sequence; secondly, grouping the module sequence from front to back according to an area sum, dividing into a plurality of module layer groups with approximately equal area sum; thirdly, establishing an analysis heat mold for calculating the average temperature of the module groups; fourthly, acquiring a power distribution constraint graph of each module group; and fifthly, sequentially arranging the module groups above a heat dissipating device at the bottom layer according to the power density, the sequence from big to small and the respective power distribution constraint graph. In the method, a three-dimensional layout problem is converted to a two-dimensional layout problem, thereby avoiding putting a high-power density device in a pile of vertical regions, realizing power density balanced distribution in vertical and horizontal directions, efficiently reducing the hot spot amount and optimizing the chip area and the interconnecting wire length.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a layered heat-driven three-dimensional chip, in particular to a layered heat-driven layout planning and layout method of the three-dimensional chip. Background technique [0002] The three-dimensional integration technology that stacks multiple device levels together can significantly increase the stacking density of transistors and reduce the chip area, while reducing the wiring distance, so it can reduce the interconnect delay problem caused by the exponentially increasing circuit complexity ( See literature [1]). However, due to the rapid increase in power density caused by multiple devices stacked in layers, and the thermal conductivity of insulators inserted between device layers is lower than that of silicon or metal materials, heat dissipation has become the most serious challenge for 3D IC design . Generally speaking, in order to finally achieve better heat dissipation effect, the heat dissipation problem should be c...
