Qi Xiong, Renzhi Chen, Bowei Wang, Yuqing Xiong, Libo Huang, Lei Wang/EstRTL: Functional Estimation Guided RTL Code GenerationUnknown

Optimizing register transfer level (RTL) code is of vital importance in hardware design. Large language models (LLMs) provide new methods for the automatic generation and optimization of RTL code, offering the potential to significantly accelerate the design process and reduce human effort. However, existing methods for generating RTL code often focus on model fine-tuning and the use of various expansion techniques to enhance the RTL code generation capabilities, lacking attention to the functional correctness. Ensuring that the generated RTL code not only compiles successfully but also behaves as intended in real hardware implementations remains a critical challenge. To address this issue, we propose EstRTL, an LLM-powered collaborative agent framework for RTL code generation based on static functional score estimation. EstRTL operates a three-stage paradigm: Generation, Estimation and Correction. During the stages, the functional estimation agent statically evaluates the generated code based on score and assessment results, and decides whether to output the code directly, return it for regeneration, or forward it to the code correction agent. This framework can be applied to various LLMs that designed for RTL code generation, further enhancing the correctness of the generated code. By providing quantitative scores and human-readable requirements comparisons, it improves the transparency of AI-assisted RTL code generation. Experiments show that EstRTL significantly improves the correctness of RTL code generation by generic LLM by 3.2\%-9.0\%, demonstrating the practical value of our system. The codes and experimental results are open-sourced at link: https://anonymous.4open.science/status/EstRTL-E200/.
