Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Design a global routing strategy for a chip that connects five distinct functional blocks. Consider congestion and routing layers.

💡 Hint: Start with a sketch of the chip layout and plot connections, avoiding congested areas.

Challenge 2 Hard

Analyze a case where neglecting global routing principles led to a product delay. What could have been done differently?

💡 Hint: Reflect on the steps taken during the routing process.
