Simulation and analysis of circuit designs

A computer readable storage device storing instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:

• receive a circuit design including a plurality of components associated with a plurality of component parameters;
• adjust a value of a particular component parameter of the plurality of component parameters based on a tolerance to generate a modified plurality of component parameters;
• determine, based on inputting the modified plurality of component parameters into a circuit calculator, that an operating value of the circuit design is sensitive to the particular component parameter;
• select a simulation of the circuit design to perform based on the particular component parameter;
• and
• perform the simulation to determine whether the circuit design supports one or more design limits.
