Patent ID: 8566767

Claim:
A system for actuating static and dynamic analysis tools in parametrically intercoupled manner for synergistic optimization of an electronic system design comprising: a timing designer unit actuating the static analysis tool to conduct timing analysis based on at least one predetermined timing model for the electronic system design, said timing designer unit thereby generating a plurality of estimated values for a plurality of signal parameters in compliance with a plurality of predetermined timing constraints; and, a signal exploration unit coupled to said timing designer unit, said signal exploration unit receiving said plurality of estimated values from said timing designer unit and configuring resources of the dynamic analysis tool responsive thereto, said signal exploration unit thereafter actuating the dynamic analysis tool to conduct electrical integrity analysis based on transient simulation, said signal exploration unit generating a plurality of simulated values for a plurality of signal parameters, said plurality of simulated values including refinement of at least one of said estimated values; wherein said plurality of simulated values are back annotated to said timing designer unit for timing closure, further compliance with said plurality of predetermined timing constraints being thereby re-verified by further timing analysis according to said simulated values.
