Problems solved by technology

[0005] However, it is worth mentioning that in the previous Cell design, the functions were single and not configurable, which made the calculation mode also single when completing the multiplication and accumulation calculation, and could not be configured according to the specific matching size to further improve flexibility. Therefore, the calculation The real-time performance of the

Abstract

Disclosed are a configurable multiply accumulation cell and a multiply accumulation array consisting of the same. The configurable multiply accumulation cell comprises the operand register level for receiving and storing Ain and Bin, the multiplier level for multiplying the Ain by the Bin, and the adder level for adding the operation result of the multiplier level to the operation result of the previous beat of the multiply accumulation cell or the operation result of the previous-stage multiply accumulation cell. The adder level can also receive mode configuration capable of adjusting the operation mode into the carry accumulation mode or self-accumulation mode. The multiply accumulation array consists of multiple multiply accumulation cells. With the multiply accumulation cell and the multiply accumulation array, the carry accumulation mode and the self-accumulation mode are combined, different operation modes can be implemented by programming mode configuration, the operation modes can be configured and selected flexibly according to needs so as to complete multiply accumulation operations in application, and thus, better operation real-time performance and higher resource utilization rate can be achieved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of digital circuits, and relates to a configurable multiply-accumulate operation unit and a multiply-accumulate operation array formed therefrom. Background technique [0002] A large number of complex calculations are involved in normalized cross-correlation matching. According to statistics, the fixed-point multiplication and accumulation calculation can account for more than 80% of the total calculation. For a long time in the past, due to the large amount of calculation of this matching method, it is difficult to meet the real-time performance requirements of the application even if the traditional DSP device of high-performance instruction type is used to complete such matching calculation. If the size of the image that completes the matching task is increased, the calculation amount will basically increase according to the fourth power of the image size. If the real-time performance of the system is im...
