Abstract:
Aspects of the present disclosure address systems, methods, and a user interface for providing interactive skew group visualizations for integrated circuit (IC) design. The method includes causing display of a user interface that includes a display of a grouped view of a clock-tree including a plurality of skew group indicators. The method further includes receiving a user selection of a skew group indicator and updating the user interface to display a detailed view of the skew group including a graphical representation of each clock sink in the skew group and corresponding timing information. The method further includes receiving a second user selection of a first clock sink and in response, the display is updated to display an indicator of a physical location of the first clock sink within the clock tree.
