Ic including logic tile, having reconfigurable mac pipeline, and reconfigurable memory

Abstract

An integrated circuit including configurable multiplier-accumulator circuitry, wherein, during processing operations, a plurality of the multiplier-accumulator circuits are serially connected into pipelines to perform concatenated multiply and accumulate operations. The integrated circuit includes a first memory and a second memory, and a switch interconnect network, including configurable multiplexers arranged in a plurality of switch matrices. The first and second memories are configurable as either a dedicated read memory or a dedicated write memory and connected to a given pipeline, via the switch interconnect network, during a processing operation performed thereby; wherein, during a first processing operations, the first memory is dedicated to write data to a first pipeline and the second memory is dedicated to read data therefrom and, during a second processing operation, the first memory is dedicated to read data from a second pipeline and the second memory is dedicated to write data thereto.
