Abstract

A memory unit stores logic information expressing a plurality of logic function elements constituting a logic circuit, and wiring information about a plurality of components that correspond to the plurality of logic function elements on a printed circuit board. An extracting unit extracts the wiring information and logic information to be used for executing circuit simulation from among the wiring information and logic information stored in the memory unit. A circuit model conversion unit converts the wiring information and logic information extracted by the extracting unit into a circuit model suitable for executing the circuit simulation. A simulation unit executes the circuit simulation on the basis of the circuit model converted by the circuit model conversion unit, and identifies the electrical characteristics between the plurality of components that correspond to the wiring information and logic information extracted by the extracting unit.
