A method includes generating a schematic of an integrated circuit (IC), the IC having a circuit component. The method also includes searching a database having one or more configurations of the circuit component, each of the one or more configurations of the circuit component having a corresponding estimated resistance capacitance (RC) value and an assigned color scheme based on the estimated RC value. The method further includes displaying the circuit component in the schematic as a symbol representing the circuit component, the symbol representing the circuit component being displayed having the assigned color scheme of a selected circuit component configuration.
