## Project Description
Design a Tensor Processing Unit(TPU) which has **4x4** Processing elements(PEs) that is capable to calculate ```(4*K)*(K*4)``` 8-bit integer matrix muplication. (Where is ```K``` is limited by the size of input global buffer)

**Project Constraints**
1. Your designs should be written in verilog language.
2. Your PEs shouldn't more than **4x4**, where a 2D systolic array architecture is **strictly required** in this project.
3. An 8-bit data length design.
4. 3KiBytes in total of global buffer size.

## Architecture

### Data Loader

* 藉由遞增的暫存器來對DATA做pipeline的動作，達到systolic array的效果。

### MAC Unit

### FSM

* IDLE : 當 ```start=1``` 時，會進到BUZY開始做MAC運算。
* BUZY : 每當一次```4*4```的systolic array算完時，會進到OUTP。
* OUTP : 將運算完的結果存進output global buffer。
* DONE : 所有運算都做完後進到DONE表示運算結束。

## Goal
- [x] Pass atleast test1~3
- [x] Support ```(M*K)*(K*N)```
- [x] Synthesis
