Datacenter NPU tile

Maturity plannedTargets FPGA + ASICDifficulty Very hardPriority 2

Replicable tile combining a matrix engine, vector unit, scratchpad SRAM, tensor DMA and a NoC port for multi-tile training and inference accelerators.

Planned. This block is specified in the catalog with its interfaces and targets. No implementation exists yet; the skeleton command below generates a lint-clean shell with its ports and registers.
