Abstract :
We develop the first power supply noise-aware floorplanning for 3D system-on-package. Our 3D floorplanner aims at reducing the amount of decoupling capacitance (decap) needed to suppress the simultaneous switching noise. We perform footprint-aware decap insertion to minimize the area overhead of the 3D structure. Our effective decap distance concept allows functional blocks to access decaps in other layers.
