Patent attributes
A circuit analysis device comprises a first storing unit operable to store an execution object which can operate on a real processor and includes information of a logical circuit, an analyzing unit operable to analyze operation which is based on the function of the logical circuit and is coordinated with a target processor, through the operation of the execution object on the real processor, and a second storing unit operable to store processor information which the analyzing unit uses. Herein, the processor information includes difference information between operation specifications of the real processor and operation specifications of the target processor. The circuit analysis device can estimate the processing load of the target processor and the power consumption of an application in high accuracy at the early stage of development of a system LSI.
