Researchers have developed HINT, a new intermediate representation layer designed to improve the generation of Register-Transfer Level (RTL) code using Large Language Models (LLMs). HINT explicitly defines microarchitecture details, enabling pre-RTL checks and facilitating the translation to RTL. In evaluations, HINT-mediated generation successfully produced contract-compliant RTL in all seven tested operator cases, outperforming direct generation methods in terms of success rate and reducing area by up to 86.1% compared to direct C2RTL results.
