A reconfigurable compute fabric can include multiple nodes, and each node can include multiple tiles with respective processing and storage elements. The tiles can be arranged in an array or grid and can be communicatively coupled. In an example, the tiles can be arranged in a one-dimensional array and each tile can be coupled to its respective adjacent neighbor tiles using a direct bus coupling. Each tile can be further coupled to at least one non-adjacent neighbor tile that is one tile, or device space, away using a passthrough bus. The passthrough bus can extend through intervening tiles.

A memory circuit includes a number (X) of multiply-accumulate (MAC) circuits that are dynamically configurable. The MAC circuits can either compute an output based on computations of X elements of the input vector with the weight vector, or to compute the output based on computations of a single element of the input vector with the weight vector, with each element having a one bit or multibit length. A first memory can hold the input vector having a width of X elements and a second memory can store the weight vector. The MAC circuits include a MAC array on chip with the first memory.
