The cost and reliability issues of TSVs move 3D-NoCs toward heterogonous designs with limited number of TSVs. However, designing a deadlock-free routing algorithm for such heterogonous architectures is extremely challenging due to the increased possibilities of forming cycles between and within layers for 3D designs. In this paper, we target designing a routing algorithm for heterogeneous 3D-NoCs with the capability of working under the technical limit in which there is just one TSV in the network. This algorithm is light-weight and provides adaptivity by using only one virtual channel along the Y dimension.
