Abstract

Methods and systems for performing timing analysis during the design of a circuit are described. In one embodiment, a simulation system can generate an effective resistance value (or an impedance value based on the effective resistance value) for an instance and use the effective resistance value in a simulation to determine a minimum timing delay for the instance when only the instance switches during such simulations.
