This paper presents a novel approach to automatically build frames for 3D chips. These chips may be obtained by stacking multiple dies, but are more often made by a backside wafer processing. This proposed flow works in a single pass and is based on a dedicated constraint-satisfaction software. In addition to the standard placement rules, the different types of constraints used for 3D frames are clearly identified: alignment, overlapping, mirroring. The method to generate separate frames is described. Results and performance obtained in production, for frames involving two different manufacturing processes for wafer front and backside, are detailed.
