  # ICLayout-Bench Dataset

20
- 92 qualified public circuit-layout tasks: nine FreePDK45, 27 GF180MCU,
21
- 49 IHP SG13G2 and seven SKY130A, for the
22
- [ICLayout-Bench evaluator](https://github.com/lizhangmai/ICLayout-Bench).
23
- Each task supplies a netlist, layout requirements, test stimuli, scoring contract
24
- and a reference layout. Available on [Hugging Face](https://huggingface.co/datasets/MAI716/ICLayout-Bench).

29
  from datasets import load_dataset
30
 
31
- repo_id = "MAI716/ICLayout-Bench"
32
- tasks = load_dataset(repo_id, split="test") # Complete corpus.
33
- core = tasks.filter(lambda task: task["in_core"]).sort("core_order") # Current 21-task benchmark.
34
  print(tasks[0]["problem"])
35
  ```
36
 
37
- `data.parquet` contains every task, sorted by stable ID. The boolean `in_core`
38
- field is generated from the same field in each `case.toml`;
39
- the corpus includes all currently qualified public cases, and changing this
40
- selection never removes tasks from it. See the
41
- [selection rationale](#core-selection-rationale). Participant experiments can choose
42
- `name = "all"` and a `tasks` filter without changing core.
43
- Core cases also declare a unique positive `core_order`. The evaluator inherits
44
- this ascending dispatch order when selecting `core`, starting longer tasks early
45
- and interleaving smaller circuits. Experiment configurations only need to select
46
- `core`; an explicit `tasks` list can override the order. Maintain membership and
47
- order in case metadata and regenerate the index together.
48
-
49
- Rows contain `id`, `in_core`, nullable integer `core_order`, `title`, `category`, `summary`, `pdk`, `collection`, `task_kind`,
50
- `status`, `source_url`, `problem`, and relative paths/digests for task files,
51
- netlists, process declarations and licenses. The typed, Zstd-compressed Parquet table is a generated view;
52
- `case.toml` owns task metadata and requirements.
53
-
54
- For assets, use a local checkout or `huggingface_hub.snapshot_download` with
55
- `repo_type="dataset"`. Pin the table and assets to the same repository commit
56
- using `revision` in both loading calls. A local checkout is also supported. When reloading an edited local checkout directly through
57
- `datasets`, pass `download_mode="reuse_cache_if_exists"` to refresh cached tables.

- ## Licensing
80
-
81
- The root [LICENSE](LICENSE) covers original project metadata and documentation.
82
- Task materials retain the terms in each `tasks/<pdk>/<collection>/LICENSE` and,
83
- where present, `NOTICE`; the table exposes the corresponding license paths.
84
- Terms vary by collection, including noncommercial restrictions for analog-db
85
- materials. Retain applicable licenses, notices, source attribution and modification
86
- notices when redistributing materials. External PDKs and EDA tools have their own
87
- licenses. Technical qualification does not establish redistribution permission.
88
-
89
- ## Scope and validation
90
-
91
- The problem and contract specify each task's operating points, physical checks,
92
- measurement definitions and score. Process scope for [GF180MCU](tasks/gf180mcuD/README.md),
93
- [FreePDK45](tasks/freepdk45/README.md) and [SKY130A](tasks/sky130A/README.md)
94
- describes resource assumptions and limitations. These are block-level benchmarks, not
95
- manufacturing signoff or evidence of model performance.
96
-
97
- Earlier revisions of the selected core and bounded-error tasks passed the former
98
- multi-run qualification protocol. Those reports remain historical; they do not
99
- establish current qualification under the installed evaluator. The current
100
- protocol needs one complete reference evaluation per changed evaluation contract.
101
- Qualification reports and acceptance records stay with the author. References are
102
- available for independent verification and excluded from standard solver inputs.
103
-
104
- Nonnegative error and residual metrics use the explicitly declared
105
- `saturating_ratio` rule: `q = 2(b+s)/(b+x+2s)`, with candidate error `x`,
106
- quality anchor `b`, and positive scale `s`. The anchor is the declared
107
- `quality_target.value`, or the paired source observation when no target is
108
- declared. Equality to the anchor has quality 1 and improvement approaches a
109
- ceiling of 2. Source measurements remain independently frozen and paired;
110
- engineering goals do not rewrite those observations. Selection follows the
111
- measurement definition, including accuracy, recovery, hold error, curvature,
112
- ripple and regulation aliases. Cost and loop-shape metrics keep their declared
113
- rules. The task score remains a weighted product and may exceed 100; the bounded
114
- rule limits individual error rewards rather than imposing a total-score cap.
115
- The 100-point level denotes challenging electrical and footprint goals, not
116
- the quality of the feasibility witness. A valid reference may score well below
117
- 100. Repeated or nearly invariant observations remain diagnostic when their
118
- score weights are zero; all functional requirements continue to apply.
119
- The fully differential CMFB amplifier separately scores static common-mode
120
- accuracy and recovery relative to its own DC equilibria. Each problem declares
121
- the scales, windows and weights; no extra PVT conditions are implied.
122
-
123
- Install the evaluator separately to run a reference:
124
-
125
- ```bash
126
- python -m benchmarking.engine.preview --dataset . run \
127
- --case freepdk45.nangate45-pdk.NAND2_X1 --output build/reference-check
128
  ```
129
 
130
- The command creates local reports under the requested output directory. Setup,
131
- index generation and publication checks are documented in the evaluator's
132
- [tools guide](https://github.com/lizhangmai/ICLayout-Bench/blob/main/docs/tools.md)
133
- and [task qualification guide](https://github.com/lizhangmai/ICLayout-Bench/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md#task-qualification).
134
-
135
- ## Core selection rationale
136
-
137
- The core is a secondary selection of the complete corpus, chosen for capability
138
- coverage. Its size is not a limit on the available tasks. Select capabilities
139
- from maintained netlists, testbenches and scoring contracts, rather than circuit
140
- names or upstream performance claims. Prefer a representative within each PDK;
141
- include related circuits when their measured requirements add distinct behavior.
142
- Do not fill coefficient bands or process quotas merely for numerical balance.
143
-
144
- <details>
145
- <summary>Detailed capabilities, alternatives and selection methodology</summary>
146
-
147
-
148
- Case-level `in_core` flags and scoring contracts own membership and weights. This document
149
- records the rationale for the secondary core selection from the full Dataset,
150
- independently of engine releases. All accepted tasks remain available in the default `test` table;
151
- being outside core does not mean a task is unfinished or excluded from Dataset.
152
-
153
- ### Coefficient rubric
154
-
155
- The integer coefficient from 1 to 10 describes the capability required by the
156
- circuit and its evaluated requirements. It is used when aggregating tasks,
157
- separately from each task's score.
158
-
159
- | Coefficient | Capability scope |
160
- |---:|---|
161
- | 1 | A single local function, such as basic logic transitions or a current ratio at declared bias points |
162
- | 2 | A small block with coupled paths or supply states, such as compound logic or reset release under specified ramps |
163
- | 3 | Local analog or controlled driver behavior: bias, transfer or output states |
164
- | 4 | A complete compact circuit coupling gain, accuracy, load or a physical passive network |
165
- | 5 | Local feedback, clocked state or charge transfer with parasitic-dependent dynamics |
166
- | 6 | Regenerative decisions, storage integrity, coupled startup behavior or a complete compensated loop |
167
- | 7 | Multistage compensation or regulation maintaining frequency response and recovery across loads |
168
- | 8 | Active auxiliary compensation, self-oscillation or broader return-ratio and startup requirements |
169
- | 9 | Strongly interacting control goals or complex regulation combining startup, frequency response and recovery |
170
- | 10 | Clock modulation, signal feedback and actual common-mode control operating together |
171
-
172
- The coefficient is declared before participant evaluation and explained in the
173
- case documentation. It reflects measured requirements rather than the circuit
174
- name, transistor count, simulator runtime or observed participant success rate.
175
- A coefficient of 10 does not imply ten times the implementation effort of a
176
- coefficient of 1. Changes to coefficients or benchmark membership produce a new
177
- content identity through configuration and task-contract digests; no manual
178
- version field is required. Archived results retain their original weights. See
179
- [result aggregation](https://github.com/lizhangmai/ICLayout-Bench/blob/main/docs/running.md#result-storage-and-presentation).

181
- ### Selected capabilities
182
-
183
- The current set contains 21 cases across four PDKs: three FreePDK45, seven
184
- GF180MCU, seven IHP SG13G2 and four SKY130A. Each link gives the full
185
- requirements and coefficient rationale. Coefficients below are the existing
186
- case coefficients, not new selection weights or estimates of solve time.
187
-
188

211
-
212
- The selection retains distinct compact logic, storage, passive-network, sampled,
213
- RF, oscillator and coupled-feedback problems. It reduces repeated compensated
214
- amplifier and regulator cases without removing them from the complete corpus:
215
-
216
- - `amp_015_sau_cfcc` remains an alternative to `amp_006_leung_dfcfc1`; their
217
- current contracts substantially overlap in load/bias sweeps, return-ratio
218
- observations and step recovery. The core retains the latter's auxiliary loop.
219
- - `amp_016_song_dacfc` remains available for its particular transient regime.
220
- Its frozen source has about 44 mV late error and 152 mV ripple in the declared
221
- windows. Those observations make it a less clear representative of settled
222
- amplifier accuracy than the retained cases; they are not evidence that the
223
- task is physically invalid.
224
- - `ldo_001_analoggym_basic` remains a regulator alternative. The core retains the
225
- GF180 pass-array/feedforward problem and the IHP mirror-OTA regulator with
226
- explicit closed-loop PSRR, avoiding a third broadly overlapping LDO.
227
-
228
- `amp_014_ramos_pfc` stays for its large expanded physical array, while
229
- `amp_023_fer_fd2s` and the chopper IA stay for distinct common-mode and switched
230
- feedback behavior. The bare NMOS sampler and buffered SKY130 sample-and-hold
231
- also remain separate: passive storage/feedthrough and active-buffer recovery
232
- pose different layout tradeoffs. These choices describe capability coverage,
233
- not an empirical ordering of difficulty.
234
-
235
- The RF driver remains coefficient 4 because its contract covers a compact
236
- feedforward circuit; its specialized devices and extraction flow do not make
237
- the coefficient an estimate of participant effort. Coefficients are capability
238
- categories, not a measured difficulty scale.
239
-
240
- ### Boundaries and alternatives
241
-
242
- The five-transistor OTA, fully differential OTA and compensated amplifiers
243
- progress from compact gain/bias to interacting signal, common-mode and auxiliary
244
- paths. The feedforward PMOS LDO and IHP mirror-OTA regulator add distinct
245
- pass-array, recovery, loop and supply-rejection demands. The IHP-heavy demanding end follows
246
- the available qualified contracts rather than a per-PDK quota; report results by
247
- task and PDK so one toolchain does not obscure the rest of the suite.
248
-
249
- NAND2 supplies the basic logic anchor; the other simple logic cells remain in the
250
- corpus. The separate SRAM sense amplifier overlaps the regenerative-decision
251
- capability represented by StrongARM, whose contract includes precharge, slew,
252
- four common modes and two clock-edge rates. The standalone chopper switch
253
- overlaps clock modulation in the complete chopper IA. The small NMOS
254
- track-and-hold remains because its charge retention and reacquisition checks are
255
- distinct from the complete SKY130 buffered sample-and-hold.
256
-
257
- The GF180 R-2R DAC evaluates a physical resistor ladder over all 256 static
258
- codes plus selected transient codes. The SKY130 DAC adds a complete buffered
259
- interface and all-code monotonicity, INL and DNL gates. The MIM capacitor bank
260
- remains in the corpus; its candidate RC extraction behavior needs clarification
261
- before it returns to core. The basic GF180 PMOS LDO also remains available; the
262
- selected feedforward version adds layout and compensation demands. Smaller gain
263
- stages, bias/reference cells, variable resistors and standalone CMFB blocks
264
- remain useful focused exercises outside core.
265
-
266
- The SiGe driver supplies explicitly measured high-frequency behavior. In
267
- particular, the case named `DC_to_130_GHz_TIA.design_1` currently measures AC
268
- behavior only through 100 MHz, so its name is not evidence of 130 GHz benchmark
269
- coverage. The selected driver uses KLayout-PEX capacitance extraction; it does
270
- not establish distributed interconnect resistance/inductance, eye quality or
271
- complete RF signoff. Likewise, the VCO contract does not measure phase noise or
272
- jitter. These limits apply when describing benchmark coverage.
273
-
274
- ### Evidence and revision
275
-
276
- This selection is a structural coverage judgment grounded in published case
277
- contracts and validation associations. It does not yet establish empirical
278
- participant discrimination. Validate that separately with complete runs from
279
- multiple participants and repeated trials: compare per-case success rates,
280
- score spread, completion cost and correlations between related cases. Separate
281
- tool errors from physical/electrical failures; do not treat unknown scores as
282
- zero. A universally easy or hard case can still serve as an anchor, but it
283
- should not dominate the suite through redundant companions.
284
-
285
- Revisit membership when evidence shows redundant outcomes or a missing
286
- capability. Configuration and task-contract digests identify changes automatically; retain
287
- archived definitions and avoid tuning case coefficients to obtain a preferred
288
- ranking.

292
- ## Receiving authored tasks
293
-
294
- Task requirements, scoring, testbenches and reference assets are maintained in
295
- Designs and exported as static files. This Dataset remains independently readable;
296
- using it does not require the authoring package or a Designs checkout.
297
-
298
- After reviewing material rights and obtaining the affected author qualification,
299
- stage one explicitly selected public case in a fresh directory. Set `case_id` to
300
- its stable ID and `evidence` to the author-owned directory containing its
301
- `qualification.json`; keep that evidence outside this Dataset.
302
 
303
- ```bash
304
- case_id=freepdk45.nangate45-pdk.NAND2_X1
305
- bench_python=/path/to/installed-bench/bin/python
306
- staging=/path/to/new-staging
307
- dataset=/path/to/Dataset
308
- evidence=/path/to/author-case/verification
309
-
310
- iclayout-designs export --case "$case_id" --root /path/to/Designs \
311
- --output "$staging" --bench-python "$bench_python"
312
- "$bench_python" -I -m benchmarking.engine.qualification verify \
313
- --dataset "$staging" --case "$case_id" --output "$evidence"
 
 
 
 
 
314
  ```
315
 
316
- Only after the staged reference and declared inputs pass verification, update
317
- that selected case and verify the final recipient against the same evidence:
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
318
 
319
  ```bash
320
- iclayout-designs export --case "$case_id" --root /path/to/Designs \
321
- --output "$dataset" --update --bench-python "$bench_python"
322
- "$bench_python" -I -m benchmarking.engine.qualification verify \
323
- --dataset "$dataset" --case "$case_id" --output "$evidence"
324
  ```
325
 
326
- Mark the accepted case `qualified` in its `case.toml`, then regenerate and check
327
- the complete index:
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
328
 
329
- ```bash
330
- iclayout-designs index --dataset "$dataset"
331
- iclayout-designs index --dataset "$dataset" --check
332
- ```
333
 
334
- For several authorized cases, use repeated `--case` selections and verify each
335
- case at both boundaries. The exporter
336
- preserves recipient selection and presentation, including unselected tasks. Changed
337
- inputs become candidates; complete affected qualification and verify the retained
338
- external reports before accepting them. Export and local acceptance are separate
339
- from publication. Task-semantic fixes return to the authoring source so subsequent
340
- exports remain reproducible. Selection, corpus documentation and publication policy
341
- continue to be maintained here.

  # ICLayout-Bench Dataset
19
 
20
+ ICLayout-Bench provides **92 public circuit-layout tasks**, including a
21
+ **21-task core benchmark**, for studying and evaluating automated IC layout.
22
+ Given a transistor-level SPICE netlist and English requirements, a participant
23
+ produces a GDS layout. The
24
+ [ICLayout-Bench evaluator](https://github.com/lizhangmai/ICLayout-Bench) checks
25
+ physical correctness and measures post-layout electrical behavior and area under
26
+ each task's declared conditions.
27
+
28
+ Each task includes requirements, a netlist, test stimuli, an evaluation contract
29
+ and a qualified reference layout. Browsing these materials requires no EDA tools;
30
+ running physical and electrical checks requires the evaluator and its declared
31
+ external tools and process resources. Collection licenses differ, and the
32
+ analog-db materials include noncommercial terms; see [licensing](#licensing).
33
+
34
+ ## Tasks and subsets
35
+
36
+ | Process | All tasks | Core tasks | Circuit coverage | Resource declaration |
37
+ | --- | ---: | ---: | --- | --- |
38
+ | FreePDK45 | 9 | 3 | Logic cells, SRAM and peripheral circuits, differential amplifier | [pdk.toml](tasks/freepdk45/pdk.toml) |
39
+ | GF180MCU | 27 | 7 | Amplifiers, comparators, regulators, temperature references, DAC, oscillator and scan logic | [pdk.toml](tasks/gf180mcuD/pdk.toml) |
40
+ | IHP SG13G2 | 49 | 7 | Amplifiers, feedback and sampled circuits, regulators, references and SiGe circuits | [pdk.toml](tasks/ihp-sg13g2/pdk.toml) |
41
+ | SKY130A | 7 | 4 | Amplifiers, comparator, current mirror, power-on reset, sample-and-hold and DAC | [pdk.toml](tasks/sky130A/pdk.toml) |
42
+ | **Total** | **92** | **21** | | |
43
+
44
+ The only Hugging Face configuration is `default`; its `test` split contains
45
+ **all 92 tasks**. There are no separate training or validation splits. The core
46
+ benchmark is a subset selected by `in_core`, not a separate split. Tasks outside
47
+ core remain available for broader evaluation or focused exercises.
48
+
49
+ The core covers logic, storage, passive networks, sampling, oscillation,
50
+ high-frequency behavior and feedback control while reducing repeated circuit
51
+ families. It is a selection for capability coverage, not a measured difficulty
52
+ ranking. `core_order` gives the evaluator's dispatch order, not difficulty.
53
+ The full corpus is weighted toward amplifiers and RF: its presentation categories
54
+ contain 52 Amplifiers & RF, 17 Mixed-signal, 14 Power & references and 9 Logic &
55
+ memory tasks. Report the selected subset and per-task results when comparing
56
+ participants.
57
+
58
+ ## Browse and download
59
+
60
+ To browse the task table with the Hugging Face `datasets` library:
61
 
62
  ```python
63
  from datasets import load_dataset
64
 
65
+ tasks = load_dataset("MAI716/ICLayout-Bench", split="test")
66
+ core = tasks.filter(lambda task: task["in_core"]).sort("core_order")
 
67
  print(tasks[0]["problem"])
68
  ```
69
 
70
+ This loads the table, including the requirements text. It does not download the
71
+ netlists, GDS references or other files addressed by the table's paths.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
72
 
73
+ To download the complete dataset and read a task's files, use
74
+ [`snapshot_download`](https://huggingface.co/docs/huggingface_hub/guides/download#download-an-entire-repository).
75
+ The example loads the Parquet table from the same downloaded directory as the
76
+ assets, keeping them at one revision:
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
77
 
78
+ ```python
79
+ from pathlib import Path
80
+ from datasets import load_dataset
81
+ from huggingface_hub import snapshot_download
82
+
83
+ revision = "main" # Use a full dataset commit hash for repeatable experiments.
84
+ dataset_root = Path(snapshot_download(
85
+ repo_id="MAI716/ICLayout-Bench",
86
+ repo_type="dataset",
87
+ revision=revision,
88
+ local_dir="iclayout-bench-dataset",
89
+ )).resolve()
90
+ tasks = load_dataset(
91
+ "parquet",
92
+ data_files={"test": str(dataset_root / "data.parquet")},
93
+ split="test",
94
+ )
95
+ task = next(task for task in tasks if task["id"] == "freepdk45.nangate45-pdk.NAND2_X1")
96
+ print(task["problem"])
97
+ print((dataset_root / task["netlist_path"]).read_text())
98
+ print("Contract:", dataset_root / task["case_path"])
99
+ print("Dataset root:", dataset_root)
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
100
  ```
101
 
102
+ A full dataset commit hash can also be passed as `revision` to
103
+ [`load_dataset`](https://huggingface.co/docs/datasets/loading#hugging-face-hub).
104
+ For comparisons, record that revision together with the evaluator version,
105
+ selected task IDs and evaluation environment.

125
+ All table paths are relative to the **dataset root**. Paths inside `case.toml`
126
+ are resolved relative to the case directory as specified by the evaluator.
127
+ The table is a convenient view; the complete requirements and evaluation
128
+ contract are in `problem.md` and `case.toml`.
129
+
130
+ | Field | Meaning |
131
+ | --- | --- |
132
+ | `id` | Stable task identifier used for selection and evaluation. |
133
+ | `title` | Human-readable task title. |
134
+ | `pdk`, `collection` | Process and source collection in the directory hierarchy. |
135
+ | `category`, `summary` | Presentation category and brief circuit description. |
136
+ | `in_core` | Boolean membership in the core benchmark. |
137
+ | `core_order` | Positive integer dispatch order for core tasks; null outside core. |
138
+ | `task_kind`, `status` | Task type and qualification status; current tasks are qualified layout tasks. |
139
+ | `source_url` | Original circuit or design source for attribution. |
140
+ | `problem` | Full English requirements text, also available through `description_path`. |
141
+ | `case_path`, `case_sha256` | Contract file path and SHA-256 of its bytes. |
142
+ | `pdk_path`, `pdk_sha256` | Process resource declaration path and SHA-256 of its bytes. |

145
+ | `license_path` | Path to the collection license; also read any accompanying `NOTICE`. |
146

147
+ Reference layouts are available for inspection.
148
+ The standard benchmark runner provides only declared solver inputs and approved
149
+ process resources to a participant; reference layouts are excluded. Use that
150
+ runner when measuring participant performance to preserve the input boundary.
151
+
152
+ ## Evaluate a layout or check a reference
153
+
154
+ Install and configure the evaluator using its
155
+ [setup and tools guide](https://github.com/lizhangmai/ICLayout-Bench/blob/main/docs/tools.md).
156
+ The dataset declares external PDK resources and evaluation profiles; it does
157
+ not bundle the installed PDKs or EDA executables.
158
+
159
+ After preparing the required tools and resources, a reference check can use the
160
+ directory downloaded above. Run this from the directory containing
161
+ `iclayout-bench-dataset`, and choose a fresh output directory:
162
 
163
  ```bash
164
+ python -m benchmarking.engine.preview --dataset ./iclayout-bench-dataset run \
165
+ --case freepdk45.nangate45-pdk.NAND2_X1 --output ./reference-check
 
 
166
  ```
167
 
168
+ This evaluates the supplied reference and writes local reports. It does not run
169
+ a participant. For submitting candidate layouts or configuring participant
170
+ experiments, see the
171
+ [evaluation guide](https://github.com/lizhangmai/ICLayout-Bench/blob/main/docs/running.md)
172
+ and [participant examples](https://github.com/lizhangmai/ICLayout-Bench/tree/main/examples).
173
+
174
+ Evaluation checks the submitted artifact, design rules (DRC), netlist equivalence
175
+ (LVS), declared geometry constraints and post-layout electrical requirements.
176
+ Scores range from **0 to 100** and combine declared electrical quality with
177
+ functional layout area. A valid reference demonstrates feasibility; it need not
178
+ score 100. Tool failures or unavailable measurements can leave a score unknown;
179
+ completed physical or functional rejections score zero. Exact checks, targets,
180
+ weights and operating conditions belong to each task contract. See the evaluator's
181
+ [scoring definition](https://github.com/lizhangmai/ICLayout-Bench/blob/main/docs/tasks.md#validity-and-quality).
182
+
183
+ ## Validation scope and limitations
184
+
185
+ The supplied references have passed their declared qualification plans. This
186
+ establishes feasibility under the evaluated conditions. It does not measure
187
+ participant performance or establish manufacturing signoff. Supplies, loads,
188
+ temperatures, stimuli and observation windows vary by task; only the stated
189
+ conditions are covered.
190
+
191
+ - **FreePDK45** uses predictive device models and estimated Magic RC extraction.
192
+ Its community physical-check deck has known coverage limits, including an
193
+ unimplemented different-potential well-spacing check.
194
+ - **GF180MCU** uses the declared variant-D block-level checks and extraction.
195
+ Chip-level density and seal-ring closure are outside this benchmark's scope.
196
+ - **IHP SG13G2** includes CMOS and SiGe tasks with case-specific extraction
197
+ profiles. The core SiGe driver uses capacitance extraction; its high-frequency
198
+ checks do not establish distributed resistance, inductance or complete RF signoff.
199
+ - **SKY130A** uses the declared TT, 27 °C fixtures and distributed RC extraction;
200
+ these tasks do not establish process-corner yield, mismatch or reliability.
201
+
202
+ Circuit names are source identifiers, not frequency or performance guarantees.
203
+ For example, the case named `DC_to_130_GHz_TIA.design_1` evaluates AC behavior
204
+ only through 100 MHz. The VCO task evaluates the stated tuning and phase behavior,
205
+ without a phase-noise or jitter claim. Read each problem before interpreting a
206
+ result as evidence of circuit coverage.
207
 
208
+ ## Licensing
 
 
 
209
 
210
+ The root [LICENSE](LICENSE) is MIT and covers original project metadata and
211
+ documentation. It does **not** replace the terms for task materials. Each row's
212
+ `license_path` points to the applicable collection terms.
213
+
214
+ | Task materials | Tasks | Included terms |
215
+ | --- | ---: | --- |
216
+ | analog-db derivatives in [GF180MCU](tasks/gf180mcuD/analog-db/LICENSE) and [IHP SG13G2](tasks/ihp-sg13g2/analog-db/LICENSE) | 62 | PolyForm Noncommercial 1.0.0, with additional retained component terms where applicable. |
217
+ | [OpenRAM](tasks/freepdk45/OpenRAM/LICENSE) | 3 | GPL-3.0. |
218
+ | [CircuitOpt](tasks/freepdk45/CircuitOpt/LICENSE), [Jianxun-OTA](tasks/gf180mcuD/Jianxun-OTA/LICENSE) and [scan DFF](tasks/gf180mcuD/voidwalkers-scandff/LICENSE) | 3 | MIT. |
219
+ | Other collections | 24 | Apache-2.0; see each collection's `LICENSE` and `NOTICE`. |
220
+
221
+ The dataset therefore uses component-specific license metadata on Hugging Face.
222
+ Read the included terms for your selected tasks and retain applicable licenses,
223
+ notices, attribution and modification notices when redistributing materials.
224
+ External PDKs and EDA tools have separate licenses.

- The selected FreePDK45 tasks cover NAND logic, SRAM storage and write drive.
8
- References use the nominal predictive BSIM4 models and candidate-derived Magic
9
- RC under the conditions declared by each case. The
10
- [process manifest](pdk.toml) owns pinned resources and profiles.
11
-
12
- Each problem is self-contained. Its configuration owns the exact devices, loads,
13
- stimuli, observation times, bounds, dimensions and area anchors. Source simulation defines the electrical scoring baseline. Standard-cell area
14
- uses the reference layout; other areas use the frozen compact estimate. Witnesses
15
- are excluded from standard solver inputs.
16
-
17
- ## Physical and extraction scope
18
-
19
- The KLayout profile enables all implemented DRC, manufacturing-grid and antenna
20
- checks without waivers. The community deck's POLY.3 spacing is 50 nm, as documented
21
- upstream for Nangate compatibility. The source deck explicitly lacks its different-potential
22
- well-spacing check, so a pass is not complete manufacturing signoff. Strict LVS
23
- flattens an isolated candidate copy with its labels, removes library-specific
24
- `cheat` blocks and implicit/global rail joins, and compares models, W/L, named
25
- ports and real well/tap connectivity. The upstream audit profile is separate and
26
- retains the original library assumptions; it is not the task judge.
27
-
28
- The functional footprint includes drawing layers 1/0 through 29/0, including all
29
- ten routing metals and nine vias. The same layer set supplies the hard 100 by
30
- 100 um envelope and scored bounding-box area. Annotation and pin-purpose shapes
31
- are excluded; the contract requires functional routing on drawing layers.
32
-
33
- Magic imports the candidate on its exact DBU grid, filters electrical text to
34
- poly/metal drawing layers and aliases case-insensitive SPICE port names. It
35
- extracts resistances and capacitances from the GDS, with no schematic replacement.
36
- Independent LVS selects the applicable VTG or VTL model class first. The native
37
- RC topology is checked during qualification against the source after removing
38
- capacitors and collapsing parasitic resistors. Simulation always uses the full,
39
- unchanged extracted RC network.
40
-
41
- The predictive extraction uses the community Magic technology's estimated
42
- resistance/capacitance coefficients and its native placement of coupling and
43
- ground capacitance, with nominal VTG/VTL ngspice models at 27 C. Wells and substrate
44
- are lumped connections. This is not calibrated field-solver extraction or a
45
- foundry signoff claim; process variation, substrate noise and RF/EM are outside scope.
46
-
47
- Use `/resources/support/magic-vtg/freepdk45.tech` or the `magic-vtl` counterpart
48
- for evaluation-equivalent extraction, as specified by the case problem. The unified
49
- PDK directory retains the upstream views; reviewed profiles include the adaptations.
50
-
51
- The explicit manifest adaptations map MOS extraction to the LVS-selected model
52
- class, import threshold/annotation markers as non-electrical comments, and correct
53
- `lambda` from 0.025 to **2.5**. Magic expresses this length in centimicrons, so 2.5
54
- represents the technology's 25 nm internal grid; the upstream value otherwise
55
- extracts a 50 nm gate as 0.5 nm. Upstream coefficients are retained. Qualification
56
- checks the selected published layouts through the complete extraction and simulation
57
- path. This does not establish stream-out equivalence between Magic and KLayout;
58
- the community repository documents known via/metal stream-out differences.

9
- [selection rationale](../../README.md#core-selection-rationale) describes the represented circuit capabilities.
10

11
- The PDK manifest ([pdk.toml](pdk.toml)) binds `models`, `physical` and
12
- `magic` profiles to one open-pdks installation. `models` uses nominal primitive
13
- ngspice files; `physical` uses the qualified official KLayout rules for variant D,
14
- including geometric/connectivity/off-grid DRC and antenna checks; `magic` uses the
15
- upstream technology built for five metals, 1.1 um top metal and 1 kOhm/square poly.
16
- The prebuilt release and library selection are explicit in the manifest.
17
- The rule files and extraction coefficients come from that release; only the
18
- SPICE reader adapter below modifies an upstream file. DRC runs all rule groups
19
- except chip-level density, including dummy fill and 0.001 um database-unit checks.
20
- The upstream isolated-worker mode keeps antenna connectivity changes separate
21
- from the geometry/connectivity rule groups.
22
- The KLayout reader adapter recognizes the official `nfet_03v3`,
23
- `pfet_03v3` and `ppolyf_u_1k` X wrappers using their actual SI dimensions and MOS
24
- total width. Named top-level pin correspondence is required independently of
25
- KLayout's topology match.
26
-
27
- The Magic profile uses nominal `ngspice()` extraction and a 10-way subdivision
28
- of its 0.05 um internal grid before GDS import. This preserves 5 nm geometry and
29
- port locations during resistance extraction. Candidate-derived MOS/passive
30
- parameters, coupled capacitance and distributed interconnect resistance feed the
31
- same published testbench used for source calibration. Physically distinct
32
- source/body nodes must remain distinct; the model boundary does not include a
33
- distributed silicon substrate network. The standalone-block scope excludes
34
- chip-level density and seal-ring closure, statistical yield and RF/EM analysis.
35
- The isolated-body PTAT uses a physical `nfet_03v3_dn` primitive for native LVS,
36
- with its corresponding four-terminal `nfet_03v3` simulator call. Its independent
37
- witness retains an output-tied isolated P-well, supply-tied deep N-well and an
38
- explicit N-well annulus. The annulus keeps Magic's extresist substrate filling
39
- from joining that body to the outer substrate return. This is a validated
40
- layout route with the existing decks, not a change to PDK extraction rules.
41
- The case additionally qualifies zero-state startup at its declared 100 fF load,
42
- temperatures and supply ramps; larger loads are not covered.
43
-
44
- StrongARM uses its declared 3.3 V CMOS binding and dynamic timing/decision
45
- measurements. Other model families, such as GF180 BJTs, are outside these
46
- published contracts. Use a compatible tool image as specified by the
47
