Abstract: An integrated circuit including a multiplier-accumulator execution pipeline including a plurality of multiplier-accumulator circuits to, in operation, perform multiply and accumulate operations, wherein each multiplier-accumulator circuit includes: (i) a multiplier to multiply first input data, having a first floating point data format, by a filter weight data, having the first floating point data format, and generate and output a product data having a second floating point data format, and (ii) an accumulator, coupled to the multiplier of the associated MAC circuit, to add second input data and the product data output by the associated multiplier to generate sum data. The plurality of multiplier-accumulator circuits of the multiplier-accumulator execution pipeline may be connected in series and, in operation, perform a plurality of concatenated multiply and accumulate operations.

Abstract: An integrated circuit comprising a plurality of one-hot-bit multiplexers interconnected to form a switch interconnect network (e.g., hierarchical and/or mesh type networks), wherein each of the plurality of one-hot-bit multiplexers includes an output, inputs, and input selects, wherein each one-hot-bit multiplexer of the plurality of one-hot-bit multiplexers are capable of receiving: (i) an input select signal to select one of the plurality of inputs, (ii) an operational input signal at a selected input during a normal operation of the switch interconnect network, and (iii) an initialization input signal at the selected input during an initialization operation.
