Abstract:
A worst-case temperature calculation unit calculates, based on heat value information of each layer of a three-dimensional integrated circuit to be designed and stack structure information of the three-dimensional integrated circuit, a worst-case temperature of a layer during operation that is targeted for logic synthesis. A logic synthesis library selection unit selects a library appropriate for the calculated worst-case temperature. A logic synthesis unit performs logic synthesis on the targeted layer with use of the selected library.
