Abstract
Disclosed are techniques to analyze multi-fabric designs. These techniques generate a cross-fabric analysis model by at least identifying first design data in a first design fabric of a multi-fabric electronic design using a first session of a first electronic design automation (EDA) tool, update the cross-fabric simulation model by at least identifying second design data in a second design fabric using a second session of a second EDA tool, and determine analysis results for the multi-fabric electronic design using at least the cross-fabric simulation model. Analysis results may be determined using parasitic, electrical, or performance information. Various EDA tools access their respective native design data in their respective domains or design fabrics and have no access to or visibility of non-native design data while these techniques automatically cross the boundaries between multiple design fabrics to accomplish the tasks of analyzing multi-fabric electronic designs or displaying analysis results therefor.
