Abstract

Methods and systems are disclosed related to multi-rate parallel circuit simulation. In one embodiment, a computer implemented method of partitioning the circuit into a plurality of partitions, wherein each partition is represented by a set of linear differential equations, determining a simulation time step for each partition of the plurality of partitions, grouping the plurality of partitions into multiple groups, wherein each group includes one or more partitions having simulation time steps within a predefined range of each other, and solving the multiple groups with their corresponding simulation time steps in parallel.
