Abstract :
The implementation of a linear array element for matrix multiplication is described. The cell corresponds to the fully pipelined model. First, its architecture and floorplan are described. Secondly, the design process is completed. Third, its area and time performances are analyzed and finally, the testing of the chips is carried out.<>
