Zusammenfassung:A method for analyzing the behavior of an integrated circuit implemented by computer comprises: the extraction of the names of the physical components described at the RTL (or higher) level, therefore of the physical components represented, as well as the names of the modules; the extraction of the names of the physical components of a path of the circuit at the logic gate level; the labeling of the names of the physical components of the paths with the names of the known physical components or the names of the parent modules; the extraction of the physical parameters of results of simulation/analysis of the circuit at the higher level. The output is composed of associative arrays containing the physical parameters of the physical components described at the envisaged level; the assignment of the physical parameters determined in the previous step, to the labeled components of the paths.
