Floorplanning is basically the arrangement of logical blocks (i.e. multiplexer, AND, OR gates, buffers) on silicon chip.

Floorplanning is basically the arrangement of logical blocks (i.e. multiplexer, AND, OR gates, buffers) on silicon chip.

It is attained by following steps:

• Partition and synthesize larger designs into smaller modules consisting of IP’s and std cells

Floorplanning is basically the arrangement of logical blocks (i.e. multiplexer, AND, OR gates, buffers) on silicon chip.

It is attained by following steps:

• Define width and Height of ‘core’ and ‘Die’ using the physical area of synthesized netlist, utilization factor and aspect ratio

Floorplanning is basically the arrangement of logical blocks (i.e. multiplexer, AND, OR gates, buffers) on silicon chip.

It is attained by following steps:

• Define locations of pre-placed cells

Floorplanning is basically the arrangement of logical blocks (i.e. multiplexer, AND, OR gates, buffers) on silicon chip.

It is attained by following steps:

• Place de-coupling capacitors surrounding pre-placed cells

Floorplanning is basically the arrangement of logical blocks (i.e. multiplexer, AND, OR gates, buffers) on silicon chip.

It is attained by following steps:

• Power Planning

Floorplanning is basically the arrangement of logical blocks (i.e. multiplexer, AND, OR gates, buffers) on silicon chip.

It is attained by following steps:

• IO Pin/Pad placement

• We have defined the Width and Height of the core.

• Also defined the locations of pre-placed cells

• We have defined the Width and Height of the core.

• Also defined the locations of pre-placed cells

• We need to encapsulate the Pre-placed Cells by Decoupling capacitor .

• A decoupling capacitor is used to decouple the pre-placed cells from main power supply, in order to protect the cells from the disturbance occurring in the power distribution lines and source

• The purpose of using decoupling capacitors is to deliver required current to the gates during switching
