Local Interconnect Network (LIN) Soft Controller IP
The DLIN is a soft core of the Local Interconnect Network (LIN).
Overview
The DLIN is a soft core of the Local Interconnect Network (LIN). This interface is a serial communication protocol, primarily designed to be used in automotive applications. Compared to the CAN, The LIN is slower, but thanks to its simplicity, it is much more cost effective. Our Core is ideal for communication in intelligent sensors and actuators, where the bandwidth and versatility of the CAN is not required. The DLIN core provides an interface between a microprocessor / microcontroller and LIN bus. It can work as a master or slave LIN node, depending on a work mode determined by the microprocessor / microcontroller. This controller supports transmission speed between 1 and 20kb/s, which allows it to transmit and receive LIN messages compatible to LIN 1.3., LIN 2.1, and the newest 2.2 specification.

VitaLLM: A Versatile and Tiny Accelerator for Mixed-Precision LLM Inference on Edge Devices
The authors present VitaLLM, a mixed-precision accelerator that enables ternary-weight large language models to run efficiently on edge devices. The design combines two compute cores—a multiplier-free TINT core for ternary–INT projections and a BoothFlex core that reuses a radix-4 Booth datapath for both INT8×INT8 attention and ternary–INT—sustaining utilization without duplicating arrays
GenAI for Systems: Recurring Challenges and Design Principles from Software to Silicon
Generative AI is reshaping how computing systems are designed, optimized, and built, yet research remains fragmented across software, architecture, and chip design communities. This paper takes a cross-stack perspective, examining how generative models are being applied from code generation and distributed runtimes through hardware design space exploration to RTL synthesis, physical layout, and verification.
ChipBench: A Next-Step Benchmark for Evaluating LLM Performance in AI-Aided Chip Design
While Large Language Models (LLMs) show significant potential in hardware engineering, current benchmarks suffer from saturation and limited task diversity, failing to reflect LLMs’ performance in real industrial workflows. To address this gap, the authors propose a comprehensive benchmark for AI-aided chip design that rigorously evaluates LLMs across three critical tasks: Verilog generation, debugging, and reference model generation.
