Abstract

A digital signal processing system includes a plurality of multiplier/accumulators for executing a pipeline processing operation. Each of the plurality of multiplier/accumulators includes a multiplication part and an addition part. The multiplication parts includes N pipeline registers for storing N intermediate outputs of a multiplier. The addition part includes a Wallace tree transformation unit for transforming a sum of N+1 inputs into two transformation outputs, and an adder for adding the two transformation outputs. The N+1 inputs includes the N intermediate outputs from the multiplication part and the one addition output from the adder.
