Abstract
A method of generating a representation of an electronic circuit across a plurality of design entry tools includes extracting a first partial circuit including a first plurality of first electronic components from a first partition, extracting a second partial circuit including a second plurality of second electronic components from a second partition, generating a simulation block in the first design entry tool including an interface between the first and second partitions, exporting a first netlist representing the interconnection of the first electronic components in the first partial circuit, populating the simulation block in the second design entry tool to include a second netlist representing the interconnection of the second electronic components in the second partial circuit and the interface between the first and second partitions, and exporting the second netlist to stitch the extracted first and second partial circuits using the interface between the first and second partitions.
