Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2022221092A1] An integrated circuit (IC) implements an M by N aperture function over an R by C source array. The IC has an input port receiving an ordered stream of independent input values, an output port producing an output stream, a mass multiplier circuit multiplying inputs by weights, producing streams of products on pathways on the IC, an M by N array of compositor circuits on the IC, single dedicated pathways between compositors, delay circuits, a finalization circuit, and a control circuit operating counters and producing control signals. The compositors combine the values received from product pathways, further combine that result to an initial value or to a value from an adjacent compositor upstream, or to a value from a delay circuit. Upon a last downstream compositor producing a complete composition of values, that value is passed to the finalization circuit, which posts a result to the output port.
