Annotating isolated signals

Abstract:

Systems and techniques for creating and displaying a circuit design view are described. A hardware description language (HDL) specification and a power intent specification of the circuit design can be analyzed to determine a correspondence between one or more signals in the HDL specification and one or more isolation cells in the power intent specification. The correspondence can be stored in a memory of a computer, and can be used for annotating a visual representation of a signal in a circuit design view based on a corresponding isolation cell. Next, the circuit design view with the annotated visual representation of the signal can be displayed.
