Xpedition Package Designer

Xpedition Package Designer from Siemens EDA is a dedicated IC package substrate and interposer layout tool that handles the full complexity of modern semiconductor packaging, from conventional wire-bond and BGA packages through advanced flip-chip, fan-out wafer-level, and 2.5D/3D heterogeneous integration technologies. As the semiconductor industry shifts toward chiplet architectures and advanced packaging to extend Moore’s Law, the package substrate has become as complex as a high-density PCB, requiring specialized design tools with IC-scale routing density and PCB-scale manufacturing awareness.

The tool provides die placement, bump and ball assignment, redistribution layer (RDL) routing, via structure definition, and design rule checking for multi-layer package substrates. It supports the full range of packaging technologies: traditional wire-bond and QFN packages, flip-chip BGA with high-density escape routing, fan-out wafer-level packaging (FOWLP), and advanced 2.5D interposer designs such as TSMC CoWoS and InFO. For chiplet-based designs, Xpedition Package Designer handles multi-die placement and routing on silicon interposers and organic substrates with heterogeneous die integration.

Capability	Detail
Substrate Layout	Multi-layer substrate routing with IC-scale density
RDL Routing	Redistribution layer design for WLP and fan-out
Bump/Ball Assignment	Flip-chip bump and BGA ball map management
Die Placement	Multi-die and chiplet placement optimization
DRC	Package-specific design rule checking
Board Co-Design	Integrated with Xpedition PCB for package-board co-optimization
Mechanical Co-Design	NX integration for warpage and thermo-mechanical analysis
Advanced Packaging	CoWoS, InFO, silicon bridge, 3D stacking support

The package-to-board co-design workflow with Xpedition PCB enables concurrent optimization of package pin-out and board routing, while the mechanical co-design workflow with NX provides warpage simulation and thermo-mechanical stress analysis for reliability prediction. This integrated approach is critical for advanced packages where package and board design decisions are tightly coupled.
