Abstract:
1. A method for creating customized mesh planes in electronic packages comprising the steps of: receiving electronic package physical design data; comparing signal traces in each adjacent plane to a mesh plane with a mesh layout of the mesh plane; identifying signal traces in each adjacent plane to the mesh plane adjacent to mesh holes in the mesh layout of the mesh plane; selecting a fill method to replace selected mesh holes with added mesh structure of the mesh plane aligned with the identified signal traces in each adjacent plane to the mesh plane, and wherein the step of selecting said fill method includes the steps of providing a plurality of fill methods, said fill methods including selected ones of a crosshair fill method, a single line fill method, a signal mirror fill method, a mesh shifting fill method, a corner fill method, and a complete fill method; and selecting one or a combination of said fill methods.
