RTL-Sequencer: Towards Scalable RTL Timing Prediction with the Sequence-based Paradigm

Accurate timing prediction at the register-transfer level (RTL) is a longstanding challenge in design automation. Existing graph-based methods struggle with limited receptive fields, high complexity, and a lack of signal directionality. We present RTL-Sequencer, a novel sequence-based paradigm that enables scalable RTL timing prediction via linearizing logic cones by breadth-first traversal and applying modern linear sequence models. Furthermore, sequence models are customized by four synergisti
