Abstract
A method, apparatus and computer program product implement optimized channel routing in an electronic package design. Electronic package physical design data are received. A physical design including a netlist including a plurality of nets is generated. Finite impulse response (FIR) driver coefficients are determined for each net in the netlist from simulation with generation of impulse responses of the netlist.
