Abstract
A method and apparatus for performing a multi-precision computation in a plurality of arithmetic logic units (ALUs) includes pairing a first Single Instruction/Multiple Data (SIMD) block channel device with a second SIMD block channel device to create a first block pair having one-level staggering between the first and second channel devices. A third SIMD block channel device is paired with a fourth SIMD block channel device to create a second block pair having one-level staggering between the third and fourth channel devices. A plurality of source inputs are received at the first block pair and the second block pair. The first block pair computes a first result, and the second block pair computes a second result.
