Abstract
An approach for methodology enabling a verification of IC designs that compensates for degraded performance due to a physical placement, particularly a stacked physical placement is disclosed. A set of stacked devices from a plurality of devices in an IC design is determined. One or more instance parameters indicating a physical placement of a device in the set is determined. A compensation metric indicating one or more electrical characteristics of a device in the set is determined based on the one or more instance parameters.
