Abstract:
Disclosed are methods, devices and systems for all-in-one signal processing, linear and non-linear vector arithmetic accelerator. The accelerator, which in some implementations can operate as a companion co-processor and accelerator to a main system, can be configured to perform various linear and non-linear arithmetic operations, and is customized to provide shorter execution times and fewer task operations for corresponding arithmetic vector operation, thereby providing an overall energy saving. The compact accelerator can be implemented in devices in which energy consumption and footprint of the electronic circuits are important, such as in Internet of Things (IoT) devices, in sensors and as part of artificial intelligence systems.

Claim (Index 26):
A method for accelerating a vector processing operation, comprising:\n receiving, at an accelerator device in communication with a data processing unit of an electronic device, a command for a vector operation and associated information including read addresses in system memory where vector data is located, data length of the vector data, and write addresses in the system memory where to write an output of the vector operation; writing, by the accelerator device, the vector data in an internal memory based on an internal address generated for each vector of the vector data in the internal memory; computing, by the accelerator device, the vector operation in a single pass through a compute unit of the accelerator device to produce an output that is a result of the vector operation; and providing, by the accelerator device, the output for writing to the system memory according to the write address, including providing an interrupt for consumption by a data processing unit electronic device informative of the computed vector operation.
