Provided are systems and methods of predicting violations of static voltage (SIR) drop in a clock-tree synthesis (CTS) layout before a routing is conducted for the CTS layout. The systems of predicting the violations of the SIR drop comprise an SIR drop violation prediction circuit unit. The SIR dro...
