Abstract
Systems and methods for a pipelined heterogeneous dataflow for an artificial intelligence accelerator are disclosed. A pipelined processing core includes a first processing core configured to have a first type of dataflow and a second processing core configured to have a second type of dataflow. The first processing core includes a matrix array of PEs arranged in columns and rows, each of the PEs configured to perform a MAC operation based on an input and a weight. The second processing core is configured to receive an output from the first processing core. The second processing core includes a column of PEs configured to perform MAC operations.
