Team Rocket EDA

RocketIDE is an AI-native chip-design workbench built with Meta models. It brings a human, an AI agent, and real electronic design automation tools into one shared project workflow: describe a chip or circuit, watch the agent develop it, run engineering checks, inspect the results, and decide what to change next. Rocket Engine connects the workflow to open-source EDA tools and makes their outputs the source of truth: the model cannot declare its own design a pass. Our demos span digital, photonic, and mixed-signal design. The most ambitious is a chip implementation based on Meta’s MobileLLM-125M architecture, with baked model weights, verified RTL blocks, and a block taken through place and route to GDS on the open sky130A PDK. The same platform also supports projects such as a photonic matrix multiplier and a programmable waveform generator. RocketIDE’s goal is to make chip design more accessible while keeping the work inspectable: people can follow the agent’s changes, review its reasoning and tool results, and run or edit projects themselves.
