SeqFeed: Improving Agentic RTL Code Generation with Sequential Behavior Feedback
Yuxin Du, Juxin Niu, Tao Hu +3
RTL code generation is a critical stage in hardware design, and the emergence of agentic systems offers new opportunities to automate this process. To generate correct RTL code, ag…
ZK-Tracer: A High-Performance Heterogeneous Accelerator for Zero-Knowledge VM Trace Generation
Jieran Cui, Zhengkai Wen, Haowen Fang +6
Zero-knowledge virtual machines (zkVMs) are a key technology for driving the large-scale adoption of zero-knowledge proofs (ZKP), but their performance bottlenecks severely limit t…
UVMarvel: an Automated LLM-aided UVM Machine for Subsystem-level RTL Verification
Junhao Ye, Dingrong Pan, Hanyuan Liu +7
Verification presents a major bottleneck in Integrated Circuit (IC) development, consuming nearly 70% of total effort. While the Universal Verification Methodology (UVM) improves r…
ChatSVA: Bridging SVA Generation for Hardware Verification via Task-Specific LLMs
Lik Tung Fu, Jie Zhou, Shaokai Ren +6
Functional verification consumes over 50% of the IC development lifecycle, where SystemVerilog Assertions (SVAs) are indispensable for formal property verification and enhanced sim…
From Concept to Practice: an Automated LLM-aided UVM Machine for RTL Verification
Junhao Ye, Yuchen Hu, Ke Xu +8
Verification presents a major bottleneck in Integrated Circuit (IC) development, consuming nearly 70% of the total development effort. While the Universal Verification Methodology…
ChipMind: Retrieval-Augmented Reasoning for Long-Context Circuit Design Specifications
Changwen Xing, SamZaak Wong, Xinlai Wan +9
While Large Language Models (LLMs) demonstrate immense potential for automating integrated circuit (IC) development, their practical deployment is fundamentally limited by restrict…
