Abstract
A method of configuring an integrated circuit includes developing a circuit simulation model of a circuit having an output port to be configured in the integrated circuit. A number of simultaneously switched outputs (SSOs) are defined according to the circuit simulation model, and a propagation delay at the output port is characterized according to the number of SSOs. The circuit simulation model is back-annotated from the output port to add the propagation delay in a signal path of the output port to produce a second circuit simulation model. A configuration bitstream is generated according to the second circuit simulation model and the integrated circuit is configured according to the bitstream.
