Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a system and method for simulating channels in an electronic circuit design. Embodiments may include receiving, at one or more computing devices, an electronic circuit design including at least one channel. Embodiments may further include transmitting two or more inputs from two or more transmitter drivers on two or more wires to the at least one channel. In some embodiments, the inputs may be distributed across the wires based upon a chordal code. Embodiments may also include generating simulated waveforms based upon the inputs. Embodiments may further include transmitting the simulated waveforms from the channel on the wires to a comparator block. Embodiments may also include comparing the simulated waveforms on the wires at the comparator block to produce two or more simulated outputs. Embodiments may include transmitting the simulated outputs from the comparator block on the wires to two or more post-comparator receivers.
