A timing analysis apparatus includes a data extracting unit that extracts objective circuit data concerning an objective circuit to become an objective of a timing analysis from layout data indicating circuits on a large-scale-integration chip; a time calculating unit that calculates a delay time of the objective circuit based on the objective circuit data; a parameter calculating unit that calculates a parameter indicating a size of an arrangement area of the objective circuit based on the objective circuit data; an information calculating unit that calculates variation information concerning a variation of the delay time; and a timing analyzing unit that performs the timing analysis of the objective circuit using the delay time and the variation information.
