Alpha-RTL: Test-Time Training for RTL Hardware Optimization

arXiv:2606.05253v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) have shown increasing promise in generating functionally correct register-transfer-level (RTL) hardware designs. Recent systems improve further through EDA-integrated reinforcement learning with syntax, simulation, and PPA rewards, but train a general RTL generator before deployment while test-time approaches search with a frozen policy. We instead perform reinforcement learning at test time, allowing the LLM policy...
