Abstract:
In an embodiment, a matrix computation engine is configured to perform matrix computations (e.g. matrix multiplications). The matrix computation engine may perform numerous matrix computations in parallel, in an embodiment. More particularly, the matrix computation engine may be configured to perform numerous multiplication operations in parallel on input matrix elements, generating resulting matrix elements. In an embodiment, the matrix computation engine may be configured to accumulate results in a result memory, performing multiply-accumulate operations for each matrix element of each matrix.

Claim (Index 1):
An apparatus comprising:\n a processor configured to fetch a first instruction; and a computation engine coupled to the processor, wherein:\n the computation engine comprises at least two input memories configured to store input vectors of elements and an output memory configured to accumulate an output vector of elements; and \n the computation engine comprises a multiply accumulation (MAC) circuit coupled to the at least two input memories and configured to perform a multiply-accumulate on the input vectors of elements responsive to the first instruction, generating the output vector of elements for the output memory, wherein the MAC circuit is configured to perform multiplications on elements having a first size; \n the computation engine comprises a lookup table programmed to map first elements of a second size less than the first size to second elements of the first size, wherein the first elements are provided from at least one of the input memories, and wherein the second elements are provided to the MAC circuit.
