Abstract: A mode control circuit operates a circuit arrangement in either a first mode to multiply floating point operands or a second mode to compute a dot product of two vectors of block floating point values. A block of multiplier circuits generates products from first pairs of p-terms. Each p-term is a portion of a significand of one of the floating point operands when operating in the first mode, or a significand of one of the block floating point values when operating in the second mode. An adder tree that is coupled to the block of multiplier circuits sums the products into a final sum. A floating point conversion circuit is configured to generate a floating point value from the final sum and the floating point operands in response to operating in the first mode, and generate a block floating point value from the final sum in response to operating in the second mode.
