Method, system, and computer program product for performing channel analyses for an electronic circuit design including a parallel interface

摘要

Disclosed are methods and systems for characterizing and analyzing an electronic system design including a parallel interface. Some methods and systems identify an electronic design including a parallel interface, determine a single circuit representation including the parallel interface from the electronic design, and analyze the parallel interface to determine waveform responses of the parallel interface by using channel analysis techniques without performing circuit simulations. Some other methods and systems are directed at performing channel analyses for a communication interface of an electronic system by concurrently applying stimuli to corresponding transmitters of a communication interface, characterizing the communication interface to perform a single simulation on the communication interface with the stimulus to determine responses at receivers of the communication interface, and determining waveform responses of the communication interface by performing operations on the responses and an input signal to the communication interface.
