NVIDIA AI(@NVIDIAAI):We tested Nemotron 3 Ultra on agentic chip design. The task is RTL coding: a model iteratively writes the code that defines a chip's logic, runs it through a simulator, reads the failures, and rewrites. Across nine categories of real design work, Nemotron 3 Ultra averaged a 97.1% pass rate at 6,629 tokens per iteration, best of the open models tested on both.
