arXiv:2608. 12197v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly used in circuit design workflows, yet their reliability on simulator-facing SPICE netlist recognition and manipulation remains poorly understood and is rarely separated from high-level design reasoning.

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.
arXiv:2603. 11075v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: As Very Large Scale Integration (VLSI) designs continue to scale in size and complexity, layout verification has become a central challenge in modern Electronic Design Automation (EDA) workflows.

arXiv:2608. 13472v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Analog circuit design is a time-consuming, iterative process in a nonlinear and high-dimensional design space that relies heavily on expert intuition.

arXiv:2606. 01188v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Translating natural-language hardware requirements into correct printed circuit board (PCB) schematics remains difficult in embedded, IoT, and wearable development.

arXiv:2602. 00510v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Most LLM code-synthesis benchmarks rely on unit tests as the reward oracle, but PCB schematic design has none: correctness is defined by structured physical constraints over real IC packages and pin-level assignments, per-task golden references are unavailable, and SPICE simulation does not validate schematic-level correctness.

arXiv:2603. 09161v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Learning effective netlist representations is fundamentally constrained by the scarcity of labeled datasets, as real designs are protected by Intellectual Property (IP) and costly to annotate.

arXiv:2606. 11562v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Graph analysis underlies many applications whose answers cannot be looked up in a single record or retrieved along a path: laundering rings, drug repurposing, user preference, and scientific theme are all inferred from a node together with its neighbourhood.

arXiv:2504. 03711v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Artificial intelligence (AI)-driven electronic design automation (EDA) techniques have been extensively explored for VLSI circuit design applications.

arXiv:2607. 06532v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) instances used for solver development are hard to obtain when models come from private or application-specific pipelines.

arXiv:2608. 08536v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Circuit localization is a mechanistic interpretability task whose goal is to identify a sparse subgraph of a transformer's computation graph sufficient to reproduce a particular behavior.
