Coarse arithmetics
------------------
.. todo:: Add information about `$alu`, `$fa`, and `$lcu` cells.
The `$macc` cell type represents a generalized multiply and accumulate
operation. The cell is purely combinational. It outputs the result of summing up
a sequence of products and other injected summands.
.. code-block::
Y = 0 +- a0factor1 * a0factor2 +- a1factor1 * a1factor2 +- ...
+ B[0] + B[1] + ...
The A port consists of concatenated pairs of multiplier inputs ("factors"). A
zero length factor2 acts as a constant 1, turning factor1 into a simple summand.
In this pseudocode, ``u(foo)`` means an unsigned int that's foo bits long.
.. code-block::
struct A {
u(CONFIG.mul_info[0].factor1_len) a0factor1;
u(CONFIG.mul_info[0].factor2_len) a0factor2;
u(CONFIG.mul_info[1].factor1_len) a1factor1;
u(CONFIG.mul_info[1].factor2_len) a1factor2;
...
};
The cell's ``CONFIG`` parameter determines the layout of cell port ``A``. The
CONFIG parameter carries the following information:
.. code-block::
struct CONFIG {
u4 num_bits;
struct mul_info {
bool is_signed;
bool is_subtract;
u(num_bits) factor1_len;
u(num_bits) factor2_len;
}[num_ports];
};
B is an array of concatenated 1-bit-wide unsigned integers to also be summed up.
