Abstract

One example includes a method for validating a circuit design. The method includes providing a set of coded rules. Each of the coded rules can define conditions for circuit cells to qualify the circuit design as being radiation-hardened. The method also includes accessing a circuit design netlist associated with the circuit design from a circuit design database. The method also includes evaluating each of the circuit cells in the circuit design netlist with respect to each of the coded rules. The method further includes providing a circuit evaluation report comprising an indication of failure of a set of the circuit cells with respect to one or more of the coded rules in response to the evaluation.
