Modern SoC(System-on-Chip)designs key goal is to attain high efficiency and effective resource utilization. But achieving such an objective is a challenging and time-consuming one, development challenge owing to partitioning decisions. Based on decision taken during partition, connectivity between blocks of the SoC must always be configured in such a way that the total performance, for both processing and communication, is fast. Connectivity depends on the SoC Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) like pin assignment, channel estimation between blocks and Feedthrough information. In this paper, SoC KPIs are analyzed and developed script using the TCL scripting language to easily understand SoC KPIs information. The Synopsys ICC2 compiler is used to execute and analyze script. TCL is used by many Synopsys command shells as a scripting tool for automating the design processes. And Graphical User Interface (GUI) provides tools for visualizing design data and analyzing results.
