Transient analysis is the most practical and effective approach for power grid validation, but which is very challengeable for large scale VLSI chips because it is really time consuming and requires large memory resources. In this paper we proposed a parallel transient simulation approach for efficient power grid analysis. Firstly we adopt symmetric formulation for NA equation of RLC power grid to reduce memory usage. Meanwhile, fast Cholesky factorization solver can be used to improve simulation efficiency. Secondly, we perform partition-based parallel transient simulation for naturally independent subnets without accuracy lost. Thirdly, we propose a composite simulation flow for efficient and practical transient analysis for industrial power grid. Finally, several industrial power grid benchmarks are evaluated on our approaches for high accurate transient simulation with extremely low memory consumption.
