Abstract
A method for electrical design space exploration includes receiving a template for an electrical design. Design component parameters associated with at least one component in the electrical design are also received. Weighted factors are assigned to design complexity parameters of the electrical design. The parameters of the complexity can include at least one of following: whether the electrical design is known, a number of the design component parameters, a level of interaction among the design component parameters, a time constraint and a memory restriction of a simulation, and whether a statistical analysis or a worst case approach is used to analyze an output of the simulation. A simulation approach for design space exploration of the electrical design is selected based on the weighted factors for the parameters of the complexity of the electrical design. The simulation is performed based on the selected simulation approach.
