Physical design turns a netlist into a manufacturable layout. iEDA exposes each stage—floorplan, PDN, placement, CTS, routing, and DRC—as inspectable state for engineers and learning systems.

Learning goals

  • Reason about congestion, density, and legality
  • Connect clock trees to timing closure
  • Use open reports and layouts as feedback

Practice with iEDA

Explore point tools and proven tape-out case studies.
