Jan 28, 2004Blackfin Compute Unit REV B Multiply Features HH HL LH LL Multiplies are signed fractional by default Signed fractional multiply result is automatically left shifted 1 bit. Signed fractional multiply != signed integer multiply Rounding available on fractional number multiplies and special option of integer number multiplies

Jan 28, 2004Blackfin Compute Unit REV B Rounding 2 cases: 0x Rd top 16 bits go to destination register 31 Rm 31 Rp 0x Rd top 16 bits go to destination register 32 bit result Rounding adds 0x8000 to the 32 bit multiplier result or accumulator value before extracting a 16 bit value to the destination register

Jan 28, 2004Blackfin Compute Unit REV B Fractional Multiply When extracting a 16 bit fractional value from an accumulator the high 16 bits is taken Where in the destination register it goes depends on which accumulator is being extracted from Fractional Multiply != Integer Multiply Fractional Multiply != Integer Multiply

Jan 28, 2004Blackfin Compute Unit REV B Integer Multiply When extracting a 16 bit integer value from an accumulator the low 16 bits is taken. Where in the destination register the 16 bit value goes depends on which accumulator is being extracted from Fractional Multiply != Integer Multiply
