Matrix multiplication systolic array feed methods and related processing element (PE) microarchitectures for efficiently implementing systolic array generic matrix multiplier (SGEMM) in integrated circuits is provided. A systolic array architecture may include a processing element array, a column feeder array, and a row feeder array. A bandwidth of external memory may be reduced by a factor of reduction based on interleaving of the matrix data via a feeding pattern of the column feeder array and the row feeder array.
