Methods for determining induced noise on a given victim by a set of aggressor signals are presented, and for identifying the worst case aggressor switching time alignment that causes the worst case victim noise. The method removes circuit analysis pessimism related to simultaneous switching noise (SSN) in a circuit design tool by determining physically impossible combinations of victim-aggressor input/output (I/O) pins in a circuit design and culling out the impossible combinations from the list of possible victim-aggressor combinations. The method further performs a switching window SSN analysis of the circuit design with a common uncertainty removal algorithm taking into consideration the list of possible victim-aggressor combinations, and determines the maximum voltage noise induced on I/O pins of the circuit design. The results of the noise analysis are displayed to the user.
