Systems and methods for implementing a floating point fused multiply and accumulate with scaling (FMASc) operation. A floating point unit receives input multiplier, multiplicand, addend, and scaling factor operands. A multiplier block is configured to multiply mantissas of the multiplier and multiplicand to generate an intermediate product. Alignment logic is configured to pre-align the addend with the intermediate product based on the scaling factor and exponents of the addend, multiplier, and multiplicand, and accumulation logic is configured to add or subtract a mantissa of the pre-aligned addend with the intermediate product to obtain a result of the floating point unit. Normalization and rounding are performed on the result, avoiding rounding during intermediate stages. |
