short circuit problems in P & R

quiet
quiet over 12 years ago

I'm using layer 3 and layer 4 for the power routing, so there are many vias through layer 3, layer 2 to layer 1.

Then there are some short circuit problems when some signals pass through the vias. Is there any option to avoid this kind of problems? Can't the tool detect these short problems and avoid these?

Thanks.

    Actually I have already put the place blockage under those stripes, so there isn't any standard cell under the strips.

    The problem is the routing lines passing through the vias, which will cause the short circuit.

    I think I can just remove the related vias, how do you think about that?

    Thanks.
