Bump Map & Escape Planning: Review Checklist

Review Checklist for Bump Map & Escape Planning.

On this page

    Review checklist

    Review Checklist for Bump Map & Escape Planning focuses on bump congestion, reroute churn, escape DRC violations. The goal is to map symptoms to boundary contracts, owner actions, and regression-proof closure.

    • Baseline manifest and revision are explicit.

    • Boundary contracts for this topic are current and approved.

    • Ownership map covers all open issues.

    • Focused and full regression evidence both exist.

    • Residual risks are either closed or bounded via waiver policy.

    • Owners signed: package owner, top-level PD owner, power integrity owner.

    No top-level issue should remain ownerless beyond one review cycle.

    SoC deep dive

    Package assumptions must be treated as first-class chip constraints.

    Reports and artifacts

    • bump map revision log

    • SI/PI margin report

    • IO co-design checklist

    • package bring-up failures

    Mini case study

    Link degradation on product board came from package routing assumptions not reflected in pre-silicon model.

    Debug branches

    • Compare package model versions

    • Audit lane mapping

    • Correlate SI/PI margins to failures

    Senior review question

    Ask: what baseline, owner, and artifact prove this topic is truly closed?

    Key takeaways

    • State baseline manifest and owner with every closure metric.

    • Run cross-domain regression after every top-level fix.

    Common pitfalls

    • Comparing results across different manifests.

    • Unowned issues slipping through review cycles.

    • Waiving risks without expiry and validation plan.

    Principal SoC review addendum

    Bump maps and escape strategy determine routability, IR quality, and package feasibility before final pad-ring freeze.
