LLM Integration Enhances Productivity in DVT IDE Family
AI Assistant allows engineers to use LLMs to generate new code or explain and improve the existing code base. They can compose requests including information from the DVT IDE compilation database to improve the accuracy of LLM responses. Furthermore, DVT IDE incrementally compiles the newly generated code and Verissimo SystemVerilog Linter incrementally checks it for coding guideline violations. Such capabilities significantly increase code development efficiency.
DVT IDE ships with a set of predefined LLM interactions called blueprints that can be used out of the box for performing common tasks. Blueprints can be used directly in the editor or in a chat. Starting from the fully transparent predefined blueprints as examples, users can define their own library of blueprints as reusable LLM interactions that can be shared across the project team.
AI Assistant supports a wide range of popular LLMs from OpenAI, Github Copilot, Google AI, and locally hosted Ollama. In addition to supporting both commercial and open weight models, DVT IDE can easily connect to in-house proprietary LLMs. To ensure confidentiality when working with third-party LLMs, users can preview all communication with the LLM and make sure that no proprietary IP is being transferred.
“The capabilities of AI Assistant are natural extensions to our classic IDE features,” said Cristian Amitroaie, CEO of AMIQ EDA. “We have long had the ability to assist in navigating and developing hardware design and verification code, including autocomplete, incremental compilation, and quick fix suggestions. The power of LLMs, combined with the DVT IDE ability to help users compose more efficient requests and incrementally analyze code changes, provides our users with more options for understanding, debugging, and writing code.”
AMIQ EDA will be exhibiting in Booth 07 at the Design and Verification Conference and Exhibition (DVCon) Europe in Munich, Germany on October 15 from 9:45 am to 7:00 pm and October 16 from 10:15 am to 5:30 pm. Representatives will be available to discuss and demonstrate the new release as well as all aspects of the AMIQ EDA solutions. For more information on the conference, visit dvcon-europe.org.
Availability
All LMM features described are included in the latest release of the DVT IDE family and now available for download by all users.
