Abstract

A method and apparatus may be provided for providing performance verification/analysis of a full-chip design. This may include performing an analysis on a first block of the full-chip design. Data (such as a waveform output from a pin of the block) may be captured while performing the analysis. This captured data may be utilized when performing an analysis of the full-chip design. Features of an interconnect between the first block and a second block may be determined using the captured data.
