The present invention includes a method for performing a thermal analysis, including the steps of determining size and placement of each of a plurality of drivers on an integrated circuit device. The determined size and placement of each driver is stored as layout data and the layout data is converted into input for a finite element analysis program. The input is applied to the finite element analysis program, and the finite element analysis program is used to construct a finite element mesh of the integrated circuit device from the input. Additionally, material properties are assigned to the finite element mesh, and a thermal analysis is performed of the finite element mesh to generate data in a thermal analysis report.
