Abstract:
A and a request generator circuit is configured to read data elements of a three-dimensional (3-D) input feature map (IFM) from a memory and store a subset of the data elements in one of a plurality of N line buffers. Each line buffer is configured for storage of M data elements. A pixel iterator circuit is coupled to the line buffers and is configured to generate a sequence of addresses for reading the stored data elements from the line buffers based on a sequence of IFM height values and a sequence of IFM width values.
