Abstract
In a method for verifying a timing at an object logic cell between a first signal and a second signal in a logic circuit with a plurality of logic cells including the object logic cell, there are determined first delay data of the first signal from a first external input terminal to the object logic cell, first waveform slew data of the first signal to the object logic cell and first signal data indicating a frequency, duty ratio and jitter of the first signal and a second waveform slew data of the second signal to the object logic cell. A first portion of a first waveform of the first signal and a second portion of a second waveform of the second signal is calculated in time then it is determined whether the first portion of the first waveform overlaps the second portion of the second waveform.
