This paper attempts to address and reconcile two different issues: the existence of multiple numerical data formats (such as int8, bfloat16, fp8, etc., often non optimal for the application and not directly compatible with one another) and the necessity to reduce their bandwidth requirements, especially in the case of power hungry and slow DRAM.

Bit Layer Multiplier Accumulator (BLMAC) is an efficient method to perform dot products without multiplications that exploits the bit level sparsity of the weights. A total of 1,980,000 low, high, band pass and band stop type I FIR filters were generated by systematically sweeping through the cut off frequencies and by varying the number of taps from 55 to 255.
