Embodiments include herein are directed towards a method for electromigration analysis of a circuit design. Embodiments may include performing a first transient simulation of an electronic design using one or more electronic design tools. Embodiments may further include storing a level of current associated with one or more generic passive device tap points. Embodiments may also include identifying a resistor capacitor (RC) model for one or more generic passive devices using the one or more electronic design tools and performing a second transient simulation for the one or more generic passive devices. Embodiments may further include analyzing a current density obtained from the first and second transient simulation to obtain a single current density map.

System and method for dual model electromagnetic modeling in an electronic circuit design

Embodiments included herein are directed towards method for electronic design. Embodiments may include receiving, using at least one processor, a placed layout and one or more electronic design simulation datasets including current information associated with at least one pin. Embodiments may further include estimating a width to support the current information associated with the at least one pin and updating a pin size associated with the at least one pin based upon, at least in part, the estimated width. Embodiments may also include identifying at least one pin that is above a predetermined threshold and splitting the at least one pin that is above the predetermined threshold into a plurality of pins. Embodiments may further include generating one or more width-spacing-pattern tracks for one or more internal nets based upon, at least in part, the updated pin size.
