Abstract
Systems and methods are provided to perform multiply-accumulate operations of at least one normalized number in a systolic array. The systolic array can obtain a first input and detect that the first input is denormal. Based on determining the first input is denormal, the systolic array can generate a first normalized number by normalizing the first input. Processing elements of the systolic array can include a multiplier and an adder. The multiplier can multiply the first normalized number by a second normal or normalized number to generate a multiplier product and the adder can add an input partial sum to the multiplier product to generate an addition result.
