3.4.2.1 Merging Multiple Cascade Chains

Multiple cascade chains can be merged using either the C input of math block or adders constructed in the fabric. Extra pipelined register must be added to adjust the latency.

The following figure shows multiple cascaded chains merged using a math block C input.
