Computational circuit with hierarchical accumulator

Abstract

Methods and systems relating to computational circuitry are disclosed herein. A disclosed computational circuit includes a math circuit, a first accumulator, and a second accumulator. The first accumulator has a first memory. The second accumulator has a second memory. The first accumulator is communicatively connected to the math circuit and accumulates values from the math circuit in the first memory. The second accumulator is communicatively connected to the first memory and accumulates values from the first memory in the second memory. The first memory is faster and smaller than the second memory.
