Abstract: A matrix multiply engine can include a first operand buffer and a second operand buffer, each of which can store multiple operand elements arranged in rows and columns. A cell array can be formed of cells, where each cell includes a memory and accumulator circuitry to receive operand elements column-wise from each of the first operand buffer and the second operand buffer, to compute a dot product of the received operand elements, and to accumulate the dot product into a corresponding tile state element in the memory. Matrix elements of the operand matrices to be multiplied can be loaded row-wise into rows of the operand buffers and read column-wise into the cells. The number of elements for which a dot product is computed can be selected depending on operand element width.
