Integrating DSP blocks into FPGAs is an effective approach to close the existing gap between FPGAs and ASICs. A much wider range of applications could benefit from DSP blocks if they were more versatile than those currently found in commercial devices. In this paper we propose a novel DSP block which resembles commercially available ones and yet additionally supports a wide variety of multiplier bit widths as well as multi-input addition with negligible overhead. The novel DSP block uses much more efficiently the limited available input/output bandwidth. Experimental results show that on average the area overhead of the novel features added to a base design is a mere 3% with practically no delay penalty. Moreover, for multi-input addition, which is not supported in current DSP blocks, the proposed DSP block is more than 50% faster on average compared to FPGA soft logic.
