Dynamic reconfigurable circuit with a plurality of processing elements, data network, configuration memory, and immediate value network

摘要

A dynamic reconfigurable circuit including a plurality of processing elements each provided with an arithmetic data input port, a configuration data input port and an output port, a data network that is coupled to the arithmetic data input ports and the output ports of the plurality of processing elements, a configuration memory that is coupled via a configuration path to the configuration data input port of a first processor element being at least one of the plurality of processing elements, and an immediate value network that is independent from the data network and that is coupled to the configuration data input port of a second processor element being at least one of the plurality of processing elements. An internal register of a third processor element is coupled to the immediate value network so that data stored in the internal register can be outputted to the immediate value network.
