Abstract
A device for computing the inner product of vectors includes a vector data arranger, a vector data pre-accumulator, a number converter, and a post-accumulator. The vector data arranger stores a first vector and sequentially outputs a plurality of vector data based on the first vector. The vector data pre-accumulator stores a second vector, receives each of the vector data, and pre-accumulates the second vector, so as to generate a plurality accumulation results. The number converter and the post-accumulator receive and process all the accumulation results corresponding to each of the vector data to generate an inner product value. The present invention implements a lookup table with the vector data pre-accumulator and the number converter to increase calculation speed and reduce power consumption.
