| Abstract(in English) | With the advance of VLSI process technology, 3-D MCMs, and 3D VLSI, in which active layers are stacked, has been the focus of attention. In this paper, we propose a method that obtains a 3-D rectilinear Steiner tree that minimizes the total wire length and the radius in 3-D VLSI using genetic algorithms. In this method, we obtain a Euclidian minimum spanning tree for the terminals with 3-D coordinates, and then we obtain the 3-D rectilinear Steiner tree by replacing each pair of terminals in the tree with segments that are parallel to X, Y, or Z-axis. In this paper, we describe the proposed method and the simulation results. |
