3. Intel Agilex Variable Precision DSP Blocks Operational
Modes
This section describes how you can configure the Intel Agilex variable precision DSP
block to efficiently support the fixed-point arithmetic and floating-point arithmetic
operational modes.

3.1. Operational Modes for Fixed-Point Arithmetic
3.1.1. Independent Multiplier Mode
In independent input and output multiplier mode, the variable precision DSP blocks
perform individual multiplication operations for general purpose multipliers.
Table 15. Supported Independent Multiplier Modes
Configuration Multipliers per Block
18 (unsigned) x 18 (unsigned) 2
18 (signed) x 19 (signed) 2
27 (signed or unsigned) x 27 (signed or unsigned) 1
3.1.1.1. 18 × 18 or 18 × 19 Independent Multiplier
The 18 × 18 or 18 × 19 independent multiplier mode uses the following equations:
resulta = ax * ay
