Claim 3:
4. The integrated circuit chip apparatus of claim 3, wherein the data transferred from the main processing circuit is in the floating point data type, wherein the plurality of basic processing circuits are further configured to:
convert the data transferred into the fixed point data type;
perform the first set of neural network computations in the fixed point data type on the data transferred to obtain the computation results in the fixed point data type;
convert the computation results into the floating point data type; and
transfer the computation results in the floating point data type to the main processing circuit through the k basic processing circuits,
wherein the main processing circuit is further configured to perform the second set of neural network computations on the computation results in the floating point data type to obtain an instruction result of the data block to be computed and the computation instruction.
