Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of microprocessors, in particular to a floating-point multiplication-add component design technology in a microprocessor, in particular to a floating-point multiplication-adder and its multiplication carry-save adder (CSA) compression tree Carry check device. Background technique
[0002] In order to achieve high efficiency of floating-point calculations, both floating-point multiplication and addition in the microprocessor are implemented using a floating-point arithmetic unit—a floating-point multiply-adder (Floating-point Multiply-Add Fused Unit, FMAF). The instruction execution of the floating-point multiply-accumulator (FMAF) requires 3 operands A, B, and C to perform (A×B)+C operations. When the operand C in the multiply-add instruction is set to 0, the multiplication instruction is executed. , when the operand B is set to 1, the addition instruction is executed.
[0003] The operand of the f...
