Circuit simulation apparatus and circuit simulation method

摘要

A circuit simulation apparatus acquires wiring connection information indicating connection data in an electric circuit, selects a component constituting the circuit based on the wiring connection information, performs a setting of replacing the selected component with each resistor having different resistance values, generates at least one of netlists using the acquired wiring connection information and at least one of the set resistance values, calculates a value of an equivalent power source and a value of an internal resistance thereof for a part of the circuit using the acquired wiring connection information and at least one of the generated netlists, and calculates a resistance value of the selected component and a power consumption for the resistance value using the value of the equivalent power source and the value of the internal resistance.
