Partial selection-based model extraction from circuit design layout

Abstract:

Various embodiments provide for partial selection-based (e.g., cut-based) model extraction from a layout of a circuit design, which can be used to generate a schematic extracted view for the circuit design and to back annotate a schematic of the circuit design. For some embodiments, the selection comprises a cut of a layout of a circuit design, where the cut may be defined (e.g., inputted) by a user through a graphical user interface that is presenting the layout.
