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.

TARGet is an open‑source, topology‑aware machine‑learning framework for modeling RF circuits. It uses S‑parameter representations of sub‑circuits and a fusion architecture that combines Graph Neural Networks with sub‑circuit connectivity‑aware networks, enabling learning across multiple topologies. Experiments show TARGet achieves sub‑1% prediction error, reduces training data needs by up to 35.5×, and improves accuracy by 9.7× over state‑of‑the‑art models, with zero‑shot transfer to unseen sub‑circuit topologies.

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.

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.
