摘要：A data formatter, which can be used to provide data and instructions to adataflow processor, such as a systolic array of processing elements. The data formatterincludes a bus control unit, an address generation unit, a shift register unit, and may alsoinclude an instruction fetch unit. The data formatter performs two primary functions; (1)extracting word-sequentially data structures from a memory space in an ordered mannerto which instructions are appended and bit-serially outputting a parallel set of 2-tuplesto a suitable interface, (2) from an interface, inputting a parallel data structure whoseelements are in bit-serial form and outputting the data structure in word-sequential formto a memory space in an ordered manner.
