Routing Utilities

• FLUTE (Iowa State), under Attribution Assurance License
  • A very fast and accurate technique for rectilinear Steiner minimal tree (RSMT) construction.
• OpenROAD Flute3 (UFRGS), under BSD 3-Clause License
  • An open-source rectilinear minimal tree algorithm with UFRGS improvements.
• SALT (CUHK), under MIT License
  • A tool for generating VLSI routing topology.

Global Routing

• OpenROAD FastRoute, under BSD 3-Clause License
  • LEF/DEF/Rsyn-based port of Iowa State's open-source FastRoute 4.1.
• CUGR (CUHK), under BSD 3-Clause License
  • Different from previous global routers whose quality is usually measured by wirelength and resource overflow, CUGR is a detailed routability-driven global router and its solution quality is solely determined by the final detailed routing results.
• OGRE (American University in Cairo), under GNU General Public License v3.0
  • Global Router Built for ICCAD-Contest 2019.
• FGR (UMich), available upon request
  • A global router based on Lagrange Multipliers and won the 1^st place in ISPD 2007 contest.
• BoxRouter (UT Austin)
  • A global router for ultimate routability and won the 2^nd place in ISPD 2007 contest.
• NTHU-Route (NTHU)
  • A fast and stable global router and won the 1^st place in ISPD 2008 contest.

Detailed Routing

• OpenROAD TritonRoute (UCSD), under BSD 3-Clause License
  • An open source detailed router for modern industrial designs.
• Dr. CU (CUHK), under BSD 3-Clause License
  • VLSI detailed routing tool.
• qflow Qrouter
  • A detailed router based on the standard Lee maze router algorithm.

FPGA Routing

• RWRoute (Ghent, Xilinx), under Apache License v2.0
  • An Open-source Timing-driven Router for Commercial FPGAs.
