A circuit description, such as a hierarchical netlist, is obtained for an integrated circuit. Based on the circuit description, a treemap representation is rendered using blocks, nodes, and/or devices from the hierarchical netlist as objects, or leaves, in the treemap representation. Using a virtual layout, the leaves are positioned in the treemap representation independent of their physical layout. Circuit properties for the electronic design are also obtained using various methods such as a circuit simulator. The circuit properties are displayed to a user on the treemap representation. |
