  • Method, system, and computer program product for schematic driven, unified thermal and electromagnetic interference compliance analyses for electronic circuit designs
    Patent number: 9785141
    Abstract: Disclosed are methods and systems for by identifying or generating an electrical schematic, generating a thermal schematic by associating thermal RC circuits of the electronic design with the electrical schematic, performing at least two analyses of an electrical analysis, a thermal analysis, and an electromagnetic interference compliance (EMC) analysis with the electrical schematic and the thermal schematic of the electronic design. The electrical, thermal, and EMC analyses may be performed concurrently by forwarding intermediate or final analysis results to each other, and the analysis results may be presented simultaneously in one or more user interface windows. The thermal schematic may be obtained by extracting the thermal RC circuits, identifying corresponding electrical circuit components that correspond to the extracted thermal RC circuits, and importing the thermal RC circuits into the electrical schematic so that the electrical and thermal schematics have the same nodes.
