UCAgent: An End-to-End Agent for Block-Level Functional Verification

arXiv CS.AI

ArXi:2603.25768v1 Announce Type: cross Functional verification remains a critical bottleneck in modern IC development cycles, accounting for approximately 70% of total development time in many projects. However, traditional methods, including constrained-random and formal verification, struggle to keep pace with the growing complexity of modern semiconductor designs. While recent advances in Large Language Models (LLMs) have shown promise in code generation and task automation, significant challenges hinder the realization of end-to-end functional verification automation.
