Abstract

A method, system and computer program product for generating and verifying the correctness of isolation logic modules in design of integrated circuits (ICs). The method disclosed generates an isolation logic module for each power domain specified by a user, instantiates the generated module in a pre-determined wakeup domain, and then simulates shutdown conditions to ensure the correctness of the generated isolation logic module. The isolation logic is generated based on user-defined voltage constraints.
