Abstract
A circuit board analyzer includes a storage unit for storing mesh position information on an analyzed mesh-division model and extracted circuit constants in relation to each other; a division-model configuration unit for dividing the layout of a circuit board into meshes to configure a new mesh-division model; an identical-mesh determination unit for making a comparison between mesh position information on the new mesh-division model and mesh position information on the analyzed mesh-division model to determine identical meshes that have identical mesh position information; and a circuit-constant extraction unit for performing analytical processing based on the new mesh-division model to extract new circuit constants and reusing, as a new circuit constant associated with the identical meshes, an extracted circuit constant that is related to the mesh position information on the identical meshes.
