LevelSyn introduces a physical-aware logic synthesis framework that uses a level-asynchronous Graph Neural Network to predict accurate gate coordinates by learning the structural and directional semantics of And-Inverter Graphs. It incorporates a level-aligned subgraph partitioning strategy to handle large designs and integrates these spatial insights into a new synthesis engine within the Berkeley ABC framework. Experiments on the EPFL benchmark suite show significant improvements, with an average power reduction of 6.89%, a timing delay improvement of 27.48%, and a 99.59% reduction in design rule check violations.
arXiv:2607. 03835v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Converting a SPICE netlist into a human-readable schematic is a longstanding problem in electronic design automation: simulators and machine-learning pipelines readily produce netlists, but designers reason about circuits through diagrams.
The paper proposes a composable network digital twin (NDT) that breaks down network topologies into reusable subgraph units, enabling efficient and accurate per-route latency prediction. By aggregating these unit twins, the approach maintains high in-distribution accuracy and remains stable when faced with out-of-distribution traffic or topology changes. Compared to monolithic NDTs, the composable method offers greater reusability without sacrificing predictive performance.
LevelSyn is a physical-aware logic synthesis framework that uses a level-asynchronous Graph Neural Network to predict high-fidelity gate coordinates by learning the structural and directional semantics of And-Inverter Graphs. It incorporates a level-aligned subgraph partitioning strategy to manage industrial-scale designs and integrates these spatial insights into a new synthesis engine within the Berkeley ABC framework. Experiments on the EPFL benchmark suite show LevelSyn outperforms state-of-the-art methods, achieving an average power reduction of 6.89%, a timing delay improvement of 27.48%, and a 99.59% reduction in design rule check violations.

Recent advances in Artificial Intelligence (AI) have revolutionized Electronic Design Automation (EDA), particularly through Large Language Models (LLMs) for circuit design tasks. However, their application to analog and mixed-signal domains remains limited by the lack of machine-readable representations of existing circuit design knowledge.
