A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device includes reducing errors in a migration of a first netlist to a second netlist, the first netlist corresponding to a first semiconductor process technology (SPT), the second first netlist corresponding to a second SPT, the first and second netlists each representing a same circuit design, the reducing errors including: inspecting a timing constraint list corresponding to the second netlist for addition candidates; generating a first version of the second netlist having a first number of comparison points relative to a logic equivalence check (LEC) context, the first number of comparison points being based on the addition candidates; performing a LEC between the first netlist and the first version of the second netlist, thereby identifying migration errors; and revising the second netlist to reduce the migration errors, thereby resulting in a second version of the second netlist.
