ABSTRACT:
A timing analysis apparatus has a block simulation information storing section, a SPICE deck generating section, and a feedback-based static timing analyzing section. The block simulation information storing section stores simulation information for each block when performing circuit analysis by partitioning a circuit into blocks, the SPICE deck generating section generates a SPICE deck by interconnecting the blocks, for a path that needs analysis, by using a result of static timing analysis and using simulation conditions for the each block. The feedback-based static timing analyzing section causes a result of the simulation performed using the generated SPICE deck to be reflected in the static timing analysis.
