Abstract:
A method, system, and computer product for performing a coupled noise analysis in an integrated circuit (IC) design include copying one or more victim circuit sections of a victim circuit in the IC, generating a blockage circuit section that represents a blockage aggressor circuit in the IC, using the copied one or more victim sections of the victim circuit, determining at least one subcircuit from the blockage circuit section, selecting, for a victim pin on the victim circuit, a power-driven virtual node on the at least one subcircuit, applying a power source to the power-driven virtual node on the at least one subcircuit, calculating a coupled noise at the victim pin contributed by the at least one subcircuit in response to the power source being applied, comparing the coupled noise to a threshold noise level, and altering the IC design when the coupled noise exceeds the threshold noise level.

Claim (Index 20):
The computer program product of  claim 16 , wherein the selecting, for a first victim pin on the victim circuit, a first power-driven virtual node on the firsts subcircuit comprises selecting a node with a shortest distance to the first victim pin as the first power-driven virtual node on the first subcircuit.
