Learning Library Cell Representations in Vector Space

We propose Lib2Vec, a novel self-supervised framework to efficiently learn meaningful vector representations of library cells, enabling ML models to capture essential cell semantics. The framework comprises three key components: (1) an automated method for generating regularity tests to quantitatively evaluate how well cell representations reflect inter-cell relationships; (2) a self-supervised learning scheme that systematically extracts training data from Liberty files, removing the need for costly labeling; and (3) an attention-based model architecture that accommodates various pin counts and enables the creation of property-specific cell and arc embeddings. Experimental results demonstrate that Lib2Vec effectively captures functional and electrical similarities. Moreover, linear algebraic operations on cell vectors reveal meaningful relationships, such as vector(BUF) - vector(INV) + vector(NAND) ~ vector(AND), showcasing the framework's nuanced representation capabilities. Lib2Vec also enhances downstream circuit learning applications, especially when labeled data is scarce.
