Under the hood

The Technology

Kalpana Chip is an AI agent that plugs into your existing EDA tools and closes the loop on power, performance and area after RTL freeze — without replacing your flow.

How it works

An agent that iterates like your best engineer

Kalpana Chip observes synthesis and place-and-route results, proposes targeted constraint and floorplan changes, and re-runs your tools automatically — compressing weeks of manual tuning into a fast, continuous loop.

Step 1
👁

Observe

Reads timing, power, and area reports directly from your EDA tool outputs.

Step 2
🧠

Reason

Uses a trained optimization agent to identify the highest-leverage changes.

Step 3
🛠

Act

Applies constraint, floorplan, or synthesis directive changes automatically.

Step 4
🔁

Re-run & Learn

Triggers your existing tool flow again and learns from the new results.

Tool-agnostic

Works with the EDA tools you already use

No rip-and-replace. Kalpana Chip integrates with standard synthesis and place-and-route tool outputs and scripts, acting as an optimization layer on top of your existing flow.

  • Reads standard timing, power and area reports
  • Generates constraint and script updates your tools already understand
  • Fits into existing CI/regression pipelines
Synthesis reports Place & Route logs SDC constraints Floorplan scripts
Closed-loop optimization

Faster convergence to PPA targets

Instead of engineers manually iterating on constraints and floorplans, Kalpana Chip runs that loop continuously and in parallel — proposing and testing changes far faster than a manual process.

  • Prioritizes changes with the highest expected PPA impact
  • Tracks convergence across iterations
  • Surfaces trade-offs for engineer review before sign-off
📈

Continuous improvement

Each iteration is logged and compared, so your team can see exactly how power, performance and area evolved.

Kalpana Chip is built as an AI optimization layer — it augments your physical design team's existing tools and workflow rather than replacing them.
