MAC Unit Implementation on FPGA
Abstract: Multiply–accumulate (MAC) computations account for a large part of machine learning accelerator operations. The pipelined structure is usually adopted to improve the performance by reducing the length of critical paths. An increase in the number of flip-flops due to pipelining, however, generally results in significant area and power increase. Using this method, we create and build a cutset-free feedforward MAC architecture that maximizes data propagation and removes superfluous pipeline registers. …
