Abstract: Systems and methods reduce power consumption in embedded machine learning hardware accelerators and enable cost-effective embedded at-the-edge machine-learning and related applications. In various embodiments this may be accomplished by using hardware accelerators that comprise a programmable pre-processing circuit that operates in the same clock domain as the accelerator. In some embodiments, tightly coupled data loading first-in-first-out registers (FIFOs) eliminate clock synchronization issues and reduce unnecessary address writes. In other embodiments, a data transformation may gather source data bits in a manner that allows loading full words of native bus width to reduce the number of writes and, thus, overall power consumption.

Abstract: During startup or boot of a device, software or firmware associated with a processor and/or microcontroller of the device slow walks the handover of control to critical initialization or steady-state functions to account for any instability due to an electrical transient that may cause the processor and/or microcontroller to perform erratically or non-deterministically during startup or boot. The wait time associated with the slow-walk handover of control is optimized to ensure that no instability due to transients is present when the wait time expires. In an embodiment, after the wait time expires, firmware/software associated with the bootloader and/or Basic Input/Output System (BIOS) may further continuously calculate a checksum value for the corresponding target software/firmware and compare the calculated value against an expected checksum value. When the calculated checksum matches the expected checksum, remaining portions of the firmware/software for the bootloader and/or BIOS are given control.
