Patent number: 8756542Abstract: In an LSI designing support device and method, in which in an LSI circuit is designed including a logic gate and an FET, a possibility that a steady-state flow-through current from a power source to a ground is generated is determined. In an inputted netlist including a logic gate and an FET, extraction is made of a flow-through condition function which expresses, in terms of a Boolean expression, on/off of an FET arranged in a path from a power source to a ground or a path from the output of a logic gate to the power source or to the ground. A flow-through condition determining Boolean expression of a logic circuit which supplies an input to the flow-through condition function is extracted. The Boolean expression is degenerated with logic equivalence maintained, and the existence or nonexistence of a possibility of satisfying a flow-through condition is determined.Type: GrantFiled: March 20, 2013Date of Patent: June 17, 2014Assignee: Renesas Electronics CorporationInventor: Keiichi Suzuki
