The generation side of longitudinal power strip pattern-information according to the embodiment of the present disclosure is described below with reference to Figure 12 and Figure 13 Method.
Figure 12 shows the flow chart of the generation method 400 of longitudinal power strip pattern-information according to the embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 13 shows the schematic diagram of the layout of longitudinal power strip according to the embodiment of the present disclosure, wherein it is clear in order to illustrate, by inner ring Power ring and outer ring power ring are dotted line shows.
In step S401, according to the distance between horizontal Breadth Maximum, core and the border on border, outer ring power ring and interior Enclose the position between line width, outer ring power ring and the inner ring power ring of power ring away from and longitudinal power strip between position away from calculating Longitudinal power strip number.Description uses square boundary and left using the origin of coordinates (0,0) as border for convenience in fig. 13 The coordinate of inferior horn, with (x, 0) as border bottom right angular coordinate, the maximum lateral width that may thereby determine that border is x.At this In embodiment, using be connected across respectively on outer ring power ring and inner ring power ring and adjacent to each other two longitudinal power strips as One group, n groups altogether, group spacing is that the distance between two power strips are inc/2 in inc, every group, as shown in figure 13.N can be used To represent the group number of longitudinal power strip, the group spacing of longitudinal power strip is represented with inc.Such as had been noted above above with reference to Fig. 2 c , distance is d between border and outer ring power ring, and the position between inside and outside power ring is away from for p, and power supply ring width is w.This In the case of, it is (d+w+p+inc/2) as the putting position of the longitudinal power strip in the leftmost side of starting point, is used as the rightmost side of terminal The putting position of longitudinal power strip is x- (d+w+p+inc/2), and distance therebetween is x- (d+w+p+inc/2) * 2.Thus It can be inferred that below equation:
N=[x- (d+w+p+inc/2) * 2]/inc+0.5
In step S402, the number of longitudinal power strip to calculating is rounded, to obtain the number of longitudinal power strip Optimal value.For example, the optimal value n` of the number of longitudinal power strip, wherein int () table can be calculated according to n`=int (n+0.5) Show and round.Because the numerical value n not usually integers that the step S401 before is calculated, therefore carry out in this step for example The rounding operation rounded up, the parameter subsequently calculated is used as to obtain the integer value n` close with n values.
In step S403, the optimization of the spacing of longitudinal power strip is calculated according to the optimal value of the number of longitudinal power strip Value.For example, the excellent of the spacing of longitudinal power strip can be calculated according to inc`=[x- (d+w+p+inc/2) * 2]/(n`-0.5) Change value inc`, so as to obtain the power supply stripe pitch for being suitable for number n`.
In step S404, according to the optimal value of the spacing of longitudinal power strip, horizontal Breadth Maximum, core and the border on border The distance between, the line width and the distance between outer ring power ring and inner ring power ring of outer ring power ring and inner ring power ring come It is determined that the putting position of longitudinal power strip.For example, can since the start position of left side at interval of inc` put one group longitudinal direction electricity Source bar.The leftmost side is realized as the distance on the left of longitudinal power strip of starting point and the inner boundary of inner ring power ring by the step The distance between=adjacent two longitudinal directions power strip=right side is used as longitudinal power strip of terminal and the inner boundary of inner ring power ring The distance on right side.
In step S405, longitudinal power strip is determined according to the line width of the putting position of longitudinal power strip and longitudinal power strip Pattern-information.The length of longitudinal power strip can be determined according to the longitudinally wide of power ring where longitudinal power strip.
Although derived and calculated using two power strips as one group above, but embodiment of the disclosure is not limited to This, can also be derived and be calculated according to single power strip, for example, can regard inc/2 as two adjacent longitudinal power supplys Spacing between bar carries out the default of parameter, then correspondingly calculate the number using 2n as power strip, so that in pendulum It is also interval inc/2 when putting to be put, will not be repeated here.
The generation side of horizontal power strip pattern-information according to the embodiment of the present disclosure is described below with reference to Figure 14 and Figure 15 Method.
Figure 14 shows the flow chart of the generation method 500 of the horizontal power strip pattern-information according to the embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 15 shows the schematic diagram of the layout of the horizontal power strip according to the embodiment of the present disclosure, wherein it is clear in order to illustrate, by inner ring Power ring and outer ring power ring are dotted line shows.
In step S501, the center line of the row closest with the lower edge of the inner boundary of inner ring power ring is regard as initial side Edge.Preferably, can by the height range of the lower edge of the inner boundary of inner ring power ring its nearest row along height phase Compare.Using the lower edge of core as initial line, the height of the lower edge of the inner boundary of inner ring power ring is w+p.W+p conversions are embarked on journey High sum, obtains line number for int ((w+p)/h+0.5), and the high sum of row is (int ((w+p)/h+0.5)) * h.Then by the two Highly it is compared, if the height (w+p) of the lower edge of inner boundary is more than the upper along height (high sum (int ((w+ at once of row P)/h+0.5)) * h), then using the center line of the lower edge top row of inner boundary as initial side edge, original position is s=(int ((w + p)/h+0.5)) * h+0.5*h are otherwise using the center line of bottom row as initial side edge, original position is s=(int ((w+p)/h+ 0.5))*h-0.5*h.In embodiment as shown in figure 15, the height of the lower edge of inner ring power ring inner boundary is less than distance The upper edge height of its nearest row, therefore it regard the center line of a line below the lower edge of the inner boundary as initial side edge.Pass through Horizontal power strip putting position is calculated along being starting point with the initial side, the space D and bottom between horizontal power strip can be made Horizontal power strip is equal apart from D ' to initial side edge, so with the horizontal power strip of bottom to the top of inner ring lower section power ring The distance on edge is the most close.For example, for one group of horizontal power strip of bottom, VDD power strips can be made to VSS power strips Distance is the most close with the upper edge distance of VDD power strips to lower section inner ring power ring.
In step S502, the spacing of horizontal power strip is converted into by line number based on row height.For example can be according to u=int (inc/h) the line number u being separated by between the horizontal power strip of two adjacent groups is calculated, spacing is also referred to as organized, wherein h represents that row is high.Pass through This step, can be converted into line number, in order to subsequently determine transverse direction according to line number interval by default horizontal power supply stripe pitch The putting position of power strip.
In step S503, line number is optimized for even number value, the optimal value of the spacing of horizontal power strip is used as.Because, In the case that group spacing is u, the spacing in every group between two adjacent power bars is u/2, if group spacing is that odd number row is high Sum, will make one in group horizontal power strip not put the position of center line being expert at.If in consideration of it, according to u=int (inc/h) the u values calculated are for odd number, it is necessary to even number be converted it into, if the group spacing of given horizontal power strip is small In u*h, then the even number changed into is u-1, obtains optimal value inc`=(u-1) the * h of horizontal line power strip group spacing;If given Horizontal power strip group spacing be more than u*h, then the even number changed into be u+1, obtain the optimal value of horizontal power strip group spacing Inc`=(u+1) * h.
In step S504, according to the distance between longitudinal Breadth Maximum, core and the border on border, outer ring power ring and interior The optimal value for enclosing the spacing of the distance between line width, outer ring power ring and inner ring power ring of power ring and horizontal power strip comes The number of horizontal power strip is calculated, longitudinal Breadth Maximum on the border is the coordinate based on border to determine.For example, can be with According to longitudinal power strip similar mode, the two neighboring horizontal power strip being connected across on different electrical power ring is divided into one group. The optimal value inc` of group spacing.Total line number nt=int ((y-2*d)/h) of row inside whole core, wherein y represents border Longitudinal Breadth Maximum, d represents core and the distance on border, and h represents that row is high.The a height of nt*h of head office of core.It is possible thereby to calculate Go out the group number n=int ((nt*h- (s+inc`/2) * 2)/inc`+0.5) of horizontal power strip, wherein s represent to start at line relative to Height for the lower edge of core.It is hereby achieved that the number 2n of horizontal power strip.
In step S505, since initial side along at interval of the horizontal power strip spacing optimal value by capable center Line as horizontal power strip putting position, until the putting position of 2n horizontal power strip is determined.Horizontal power strip Putting for group number is that face carries out position and put successively from beneath, for example, one can be put at interval of the spacing of inc`/2 Horizontal power strip.By being spaced, on the one hand certain line number realizes the equal of power strip using capable center line as putting position It is even to put, power strip on the other hand can be avoided with causing short circuit on electric power network or hindering through hole to lead to from power rail Power strip.
In step S506, judge between the upper edge of the inner boundary of inner ring power ring and the horizontal power strip away from its nearest neighbours Distance whether be more than inc`/2, i.e. compare the upper edge of inner boundary and topmost one horizontal power strip difference in height whether More than u/2, if it is, mean that also presence can put the space of an independent horizontal power strip, step S508 is performed, it is no Then perform step S509.Last root transverse direction power strip height=s+ (n-0.5) * inc`, inner boundary upper edge height= y-w-p-d.Power strip is put by a group number, is existed after last group of power strip put, last root power strip is apart from inner edge The difference in height on edge is between 0~inc` in boundary, and the spacing of adjacent two power strips is inc`/2, if last root power strip The difference in height on edge is more than inc`/2 on inner boundary, and a power strip can be individually inserted into addition.
In step S507, the upper edge of the inner boundary of the inner ring power ring and horizontal power strip away from its nearest neighbours it Between the horizontal power strip of increase by one.For example, can be by s+ (n-0.5) * inc`+ above the horizontal power strip nearest apart from upper edge The center line of row at 0.5*inc` as increased horizontal power strip putting position., can be according to one by the step With default spacing as close possible to distance realize that the uniform of horizontal power strip as much as possible is put.
In step S508, horizontal power strip figure is generated according to the line width of the putting position of horizontal power strip and horizontal power strip Case information.
Similar to putting for longitudinal power strip, the determination of the putting position of horizontal power strip is also not limited to above description point The embodiment that group is realized, can be calculated according to the spacing and number of single power strip, will not be repeated here.
