An integrated circuit simulation method is performed by a processor and includes: obtaining a register transfer level (RTL) waveform set obtained by performing an RTL simulation based on a circuit, where the circuit is generated in an RTL design stage and includes a register having an internal net and a data output port, and the RTL waveform set includes a first waveform corresponding to the data output port of the register; obtaining a netlist and delay information obtained by performing a logic synthesis based on the circuit, where the netlist includes a first node and a second node, the first node corresponds to the internal net of the register, and the second node corresponds to the data output port of the register; applying the first waveform to the first node; and triggering the register according to the delay information to obtain a second waveform at the second node.

Integrated circuit simulation and design method and system thereof

The present disclosure provides a testing method and a testing system. The testing method is performed by at least one processor and includes the following operations: converting a circuit data of a scan test to a program, in which the program is configured to observe an untested part of a circuitry that is unable to be tested in the scan test; generating a waveform data associated with the untested part; generating a look-up table according to the program and a netlist file, in which the netlist file indicates the circuitry; and testing the untested part of the circuitry according to the waveform data and the look-up table.
