Method of evaluating semiconductor integrated circuit to be designed in consideration of standby DC leakage current

摘要

First, circuit simulation programs are executed based on electric information of a schematic of a semiconductor integrated circuit. Then, LVS (layout versus schematic) programs are executed using the electric information of the schematic and physical layout information corresponding to the schematic. The semiconductor integrated circuit is therefore evaluated by processing circuit design value information obtained from the circuit simulation programs and layout information obtained by execution of the LVS programs.
