Researchers have introduced AnalogPortBench, a new benchmark designed to evaluate Large Language Models (LLMs) on the task of porting analog circuits across different process nodes. The benchmark includes 54 tasks involving ten circuits, ranging from simple current mirrors to complex telescopic amplifiers, and tests their transferability from a 0.18 $\mu$m process to the SKY130 PDK. Initial evaluations of six frontier LLMs revealed that while models can port basic circuits, they struggle with headroom-sensitive designs and rarely identify infeasible specifications, with simulation feedback proving more beneficial than increased sample size or advanced reasoning.
