1. A circuit simulation method, comprising:
performing a plurality of Monte Carlo simulations in parallel according to a first netlist file and process model data, in order to generate a performance simulation result, wherein the first netlist file is configured to indicate a basic circuit in a circuitry;
selecting a plurality of component parameters lower than a predetermined yield rate according to the performance simulation result; and
determining whether an estimated yield rate of the circuitry meets the predetermined yield rate according to the plurality of component parameters.
