Abstract

Disclosed are methods, systems, and articles of manufacture for probing a multi-fabric electronic design that spans across multiple design fabrics. These techniques identify a single layout editor, a first electronic design in a first design fabric, and a second electronic design in a second design fabric. An input for probing a circuit component in the first electronic design may further be identified at a user interface of a computing system. The circuit component being probed is connected to an instance of the second electronic design. In response to the input, one or more co-design modules render a representation of the first layout with emphasized circuit components in the first design fabric and the second design fabric, wherein the one or more co-design modules are stored at least partially in memory of and function in conjunction with at least one microprocessor of a computing system.
