The present disclosure describes a digital signal processing (DSP) block that includes a plurality of columns of weight registers and a plurality of inputs configured to receive a first plurality of values and a second plurality of values. The first plurality of values is stored in the plurality of columns of weight registers after being received. In a first mode of operation, the first and second pluralities of values are received via a first portion of the plurality of inputs. In a second mode of operation, the first plurality of values is received via a second portion of the plurality of inputs, and the second plurality of values is received via the first portion of the plurality of inputs. Additionally, the DSP block includes a plurality of multipliers configured to simultaneously multiply each value of the first plurality of values by each value of the second plurality of values.

A method for boundary port modelling that correctly handles back-to-back isolation intent, level shifter intent and voltage level association, by providing hard association of power domains to soft data objects, such as wires. The method includes identifying a boundary port in a detailed power intent (DPI) for a soft design object (SDO). A non-wire object is inserted in the SDO for the boundary port. In the DPI, a power domain of the boundary port is assigned to the non-wire object.
