Abstract

A computing system includes a plurality of functional units, each functional unit having one or more inputs and an output. There is a shared memory block coupled to the inputs and outputs of the plurality of functional units. There is a private memory block assigned to each of the plurality of functional units. An inter functional unit data bypass (IFUDB) block is coupled to the plurality of functional units. The IFUDB is configured to route signals between the one or more functional units without use of the shared memory block.
