Abstract
Circuitry that accepts a data input and an enable input, and generates an output sum based on the data input includes an input stage circuit that includes an input register. The input register accepts the enable input. The circuitry further includes a systolic register operatively connected to the input stage circuit, and the systolic register is operated without any enable connection. The circuitry further includes a multiplier connected to the systolic register, which is configured to generate a product value. The circuitry further includes an output stage circuit that includes an adder that calculates the output sum based least in part on the product value.
