Abstract
A method includes assigning a default voltage value to a net in an integrated circuit (IC) schematic, generating a simulation voltage value of the net by performing a circuit simulation on the net using the assigned default voltage value, and modifying the IC schematic to include a voltage value associated with the net. The voltage value associated with the net and included in the modified IC schematic is based on a comparison between the assigned default voltage value and the simulation voltage value of the net.
