Abstract

As an important step in PCB design, the escape routing problem has been extensively studied in literature. However, few studies have been done on the escape routing of differential pairs. In this paper, we study the differential pair escape routing problem and propose two algorithms. The first one computes the optimal routing for a single differential pair while the second one is able to simultaneously route multiple differential pairs considering both routability and wire length. We then propose a two-stage routing scheme based on the two algorithms. Experimental results show that our routing scheme efficiently and effectively solves the differential pair escape routing test cases we obtained from industry.
