Technical Examples

Simulation of electromagnetic characteristics of an electrical circuit uses netlist data defining component instances, including layout component instances, and their topological interconnection in an electrical circuit. A circuit simulation is performed using the netlist data, involving use of a model for each layout component instance. An attempt is made to retrieve an existing simulation model of the layout component instance from a database of such layout component simulation models. If no suitable simulation model can be found in the database, an attempt is made to interpolate a new simulation model from among existing simulation models in the database. If interpolation is determined not to be feasible, then an electromagnetic simulation of the layout component instance is performed to develop a new electromagnetic simulation model. This new model is used in the circuit simulation, and added to the database for future use.
