Abstract

The present disclosure relates to software-defined methods and apparatuses for designing a wafer-level switching system, including: determining wafer-level switching system layout constraints; constructing a target wafer-level switching system and determining parameters, and designing a logical topology of a switching network; designing a layout of the switching chiplets on the wafer substrate; respectively designing interface structures of external chiplets and internal chiplets; configuring a switching mode and an enable state of each port of the switching chiplets; ending the process when the target logical topology can be achieved by the wafer-level switching system; otherwise, reconstructing a logical topology of a switching network and mapping it to the substrate.
