Signed and Unsigned with Different Widths
The DSP block supports different widths of signed and unsigned multipliers besides x9, x18 and x36 widths. For
unsigned operands, unused upper data bits should be filled to create a valid x9, x18 or x36 operand. For signed
two’s complement operands, sign extension of the most significant bit should be performed until x9, x18 or x36
width is reached. Table 2-8 provides an example of this.
Table 2-8. An Example of Sign Extension
OVERFLOW Flag from MAC
The sysDSP block provides an overflow output to indicate that the accumulator has overflowed. When two
unsigned numbers are added and the result is a smaller number then accumulator roll over is said to occur and
overflow signal is indicated. When two positive numbers are added with a negative sum and when two negative
numbers are added with a positive sum, then the accumulator “roll-over” is said to have occurred and an overflow
signal is indicated. Note when overflow occurs the overflow flag is present for only one cycle. By counting these
overflow pulses in FPGA logic, larger accumulators can be constructed. The conditions overflow signals for signed
and unsigned operands are listed in Figure 2-23.
