TAPCO-G: LLM-Guided Design-Adaptive Timing and Power Co-Optimization with Graph-Based Physical Priors
Post-placement timing and power co-optimization is critical to meeting setup timing targets and reducing power within placement constraints. A cell replacement can improve timing along one path while increasing power or reducing slack on others. Conventional optimizers follow fixed rules for scheduling and accepting repairs, limiting their ability to address design-specific bottlenecks. A large…
