ABSTRACT:
A method and software product evaluate vias in an electronic design. One or more via sufficiency rules are formulated, and then the electronic design is processed to determine whether the vias of the electronic design violate the via sufficiency rules. In the event of a violation, one or more indicators are generated to identify vias that violate the via sufficiency rules. The indicators are visual indicators (e.g., via insufficiency DRCs) on a graphical user interface, and/or a textual report summarizing violations.
