Abstract
Disclosed is a method of allowing a user to assign I/O cells of an integrated circuit chip to package channels of a package, comprising: calculating package RLC values for each package channel in the package; and assigning each I/O cell to one or more package channels based on the calculated package RLC values of the package channels.

A method of allowing a user to assign I/O cells of an integrated circuit chip to package channels of a package, comprising:
- calculating package RLC values for each said package channel in said package;
- and
- assigning each I/O cell to one or more said package channels based on said calculated package RLC values of said package channels.
A computer system comprising a processor, an address/data bus coupled to said processor, and a computer-readable memory unit coupled to communicate with said processor, said memory unit containing instructions that when executed implement a method for allowing a user to assign I/O cells of an integrated circuit chip to package channels of a package, said method comprising the computer implemented steps of:
- calculating package RLC values for each said package channel in said package;
- and
- assigning each I/O cell to one or more said package channels based on said calculated package RLC values of said package channels.
