A method (100) of estimating a performance characteristic of an integrated circuit (IC) design having an intellectual property (“IP”) core pre-characterizes an element type of the IC design to provide an estimation result of the element type (102-108). Mid-level elements of the IP are acquired (116). A user selects a value of a parameter of the IP core and the IC design is run on a design tool using the estimation result to model the mid-level elements of the IP core (118) to return a performance value of the IC design (120).
