ABSTRACT:
A logic circuit simulation apparatus used in designing a logic IC (integrated circuit) is provided. The logic circuit simulation apparatus includes a power control signal specifying unit which creates power control signal information for specifying statuses of a plurality of power control signals, a logic circuit simulation control information generation unit which reads the power control signal information and related circuit connection information and generates a logic circuit simulation control information based on the power control signal information and the circuit connection information, and a logic circuit simulation unit which fixes with high impedance each input of a circuit block to which power is not supplied in accordance with the logic circuit simulation control information, simulating the logic circuit.
