Abstract
According to one embodiment, a simulation apparatus is disclosed. The simulation apparatus includes a storage device storing data relating to a thermal equivalent circuit of a semiconductor device. The simulation apparatus further includes an estimation device estimating a time-dependent change in thermal characteristics of the semiconductor device by using the data. The thermal equivalent circuit includes a first thermal equivalent circuit corresponding to a lower-surface-side part of the semiconductor device. The thermal equivalent circuit further includes a second thermal equivalent circuit connected to the first thermal equivalent circuit and corresponding to an upper-surface-side part of the semiconductor device.
