Abstract
Embodiments of this application relate to a convolutional computing accelerator, a convolutional computing method, and a convolutional computing device, which belong to the technical field of electronic circuits. The convolutional computing accelerator includes: a controller, a computing matrix, and a first cache. The computing matrix comprising at least one row of computing units, each row of computing units comprising at least two adjacent connected computing units. The controller is configured to control input data of each row of computing units to be loaded into the first cache, and to control the input data loaded into the first cache to be inputted into the two adjacent computing units in a corresponding row. Each of the computing units in the corresponding row is configured to perform, in a first clock cycle, a convolutional computation based on received input data and a pre-stored convolutional kernel.
