ABSTRACT:
A system and method for resolving mismatched graphical symbols in computer-aided design of integrated circuits during schematic migration. The system compares the dimensions of the graphical symbols within the circuit primitives of the target and source schematic databases and detects if the parameters are different. If so, the system alters the graphical symbols in the target circuit primitive to resolve the mismatch.
