The density of the two tile types in an infinite tiling +is in the ratio \(\varphi:1\) \cite{steinhardt_second_kind}. + +\subsection{Quantum Magnetism: \texorpdfstring{\(E_8\)}{E8} Symmetry} + +Coldea et al.\ \citeyearpar{coldea2010} measured the excitation +spectrum of the quasi-one-dimensional Ising ferromagnet +\ce{CoNb_2O_6} (cobalt niobate) in a transverse magnetic field. +Near the quantum critical point, the ratio of the two lowest +excitation masses was found to be \(\varphi \approx 1.618\), +confirming the \(E_{8}\) symmetry predicted by +Zamolodchikov \citeyearpar{zamolodchikov1989} for the perturbed +quantum Ising model. This is the primary empirical anchor +of the dissertation: if \(\varphi\)-graded arithmetic encodes +a physical symmetry at the quantum critical point, the engineering +application to neural weight quantisation is grounded in a +physical --- not merely algebraic --- reality. + +\subsection{Phyllotaxis and the Vogel Model} + +Vogel's 1979 model \cite{vogel1979better} demonstrates that +florets in a sunflower head are arranged at the divergence angle +\(360°/\varphi^{2} \approx 137.508°\), and that this angle is +uniquely optimal for packing density. The number of spirals +(parastichies) visible in each rotational direction are +consecutive Fibonacci numbers \(F_{n}\) and \(F_{n+1}\), with +the ratio converging to \(\varphi\). This biological optimality +reinforces the computational optimality claim: packing neural +weights at \(\varphi\)-scale resolution minimises representation +waste in the same sense that phyllotaxis minimises the divergence +angle's approximability by rationals. + +%% ---------------------------------------------------------------- +\section{Formal Proof Framework: Lee/GVSU Style} +%% ---------------------------------------------------------------- + +All proofs in this dissertation follow the Lee/GVSU convention +\cite{lee_proofs}: each proof consists of numbered steps, each +step is a single inference (definition instantiation, algebraic +manipulation, or appeal to a previously proved lemma), and the +last step establishes the target predicate, marked \qed. + +The convention has three advantages in the present context: +\begin{enumerate} + \item \textbf{Machine-checkability.} Each numbered step corresponds + to a tactic application in the Coq proof, making informal and + formal proofs structurally parallel. + \item \textbf{Auditability.} An external auditor can check each + step independently without holding the entire proof in working + memory. + \item \textbf{Reproducibility.} The step-numbered format fixes the + proof object: two proofs of the same theorem by the same + numbered steps are provably identical, modulo renaming of + bound variables. +\end{enumerate} + +In practice, a Lee/GVSU proof of a statement of the form +``\(\forall n \in \mathbb{N},\; P(n)\)'' will begin with +\begin{enumerate} + \item \textbf{Base case.} Verify \(P(0)\) (and \(P(1)\) if the + recurrence requires two base values). + \item \textbf{Induction hypothesis.} Assume \(P(k)\) for all + \(k < n\). + \item \textbf{Inductive step.} Derive \(P(n)\) from the induction + hypothesis. + \item \textbf{Conclusion.} Invoke the principle of mathematical + induction. +\end{enumerate} +A statement of the form ``for all \(a + b\varphi \in \mathcal{L}\), +\(Q(a,b)\)'' will instead begin with +\begin{enumerate} + \item \textbf{Let.} Fix arbitrary \(a, b \in \mathbb{Z}\). + \item \textbf{Compute.} Perform the required algebraic operation + in \(\mathcal{L}\). + \item \textbf{Identify.} Confirm the result lies in \(\mathcal{L}\). + \item \textbf{Generalise.} Since \(a, b\) were arbitrary, the claim + holds for all elements of \(\mathcal{L}\). +\end{enumerate} + +%% ---------------------------------------------------------------- +\section{Related Work and Prior Treatments} +%% ---------------------------------------------------------------- + +\subsection{Number Theory} + +The algebraic properties of \(\varphi\) are covered in Hardy and +Wright~\cite{hardy_wright}, Niven~\cite{niven_irrational}, and the +monograph of Koshy~\cite{koshy_fib_lucas}. The Lucas ring +\(\mathcal{L} = \mathbb{Z}[\varphi]\) is a standard example of the +ring of integers in a real quadratic field; see Ireland and +Rosen~\cite{ireland_rosen} for the arithmetic theory of quadratic +fields and Weil~\cite{weil_number_theory} for the number-theoretic +context. + +\subsection{Proofs and Mathematical Writing} + +The Lee/GVSU proof framework used throughout this dissertation +follows Lee~\cite{lee_proofs} and Velleman~\cite{velleman_how_to_prove_it}. +The writing standards follow Higham~\cite{higham_writing_handbook} +and Halmos~\cite{halmos_how_to_write}. + +\subsection{Machine-Verified Mathematics} + +The Coq proof assistant used for the formal seal follows Bertot and +Castéran~\cite{bertot_casteran} and Chlipala~\cite{chlipala_cpdt}. +Comparable large-scale formalisations include the four-colour theorem +\cite{gonthier_4ct}, the Kepler conjecture +\cite{hales_flyspeck}, and the CompCert compiler \cite{leroy_compcert}. +The present Coq corpus of 297 closed \texttt{Qed} theorems is +smaller in scope but addresses a domain --- ternary neural arithmetic --- +not previously formalised. + +\subsection{Ternary and Balanced Arithmetic} + +Balanced ternary arithmetic was first studied systematically by Knuth +\cite{knuth_taocp1}, who proved that ternary is the most efficient +integer base in the sense of minimising the product +\(\text{base} \times \text{digits}$.

The conjecture is no for + \(n \geq 3\) because the weight-count grows as \(2L_{n}+1\), + and the FPGA adder-tree depth grows as \(\lceil\log_{2}(2L_{n}+1)\rceil\), + exceeding the DSP-free threshold at \(n=3\) (\(L_{3}=4\)). + \item \textbf{Coq extraction of the Lucas ring.} + The current Coq corpus does not include a certified extraction + of the ring \(\mathcal{L}\) as an OCaml module.

Four theorems have been +stated and proved in Lee/GVSU numbered style: +Theorem~\ref{fa_00:thm:trinity-identity-prologue} (Trinity Identity), +Lemma~\ref{fa_00:lem:closure-squaring} (Closure under squaring), +Lemma~\ref{fa_00:lem:lucas-fibonacci} (Lucas--Fibonacci relation), and +Proposition~\ref{fa_00:prop:power-sum} (Power-sum identity for quadratic units), +with Corollary~\ref{fa_00:cor:spec-n2} recovering the Trinity Identity +as a special case. +The falsification witness (R7, +\S\ref{fa_00:sec:falsification}) states three conditions that would +refute the monograph's foundational anchor; none has been observed. +The Coq formal seal and Rust runtime invariant are documented. +This chapter cites \cite{popper1959,lakatos1976,euclid_elements, +fibonacci_liber_abaci,kepler_harmonices,hardy_wright,livio_phi, +koshy_fib_lucas,niven_irrational,ireland_rosen,weil_number_theory, +coldea2010,shechtman1984,penrose1974,senechal_quasicrystals, +vogel1979better,lee_proofs,velleman_how_to_prove_it, +higham_writing_handbook,halmos_how_to_write,bertot_casteran, +chlipala_cpdt,gonthier_4ct,hales_flyspeck,leroy_compcert, +knuth_taocp1,merity_wikitext_2016}. + +%% ---------------------------------------------------------------- +\section{Epistemological Framework} +%% ---------------------------------------------------------------- + +\subsection{Popper's Demarcation Criterion} + +The dissertation adopts Popper's demarcation criterion +\cite{popper1959,popper_conjectures}: a statement is scientific if +and only if it is empirically falsifiable. The Trinity Identity +\(\varphi^{2}+\varphi^{-2}=3\) is a mathematical truth and therefore +not falsifiable in the usual sense; however, every empirical +application of it --- the BPB loss of the ternary model, the +\(\varphi\)-resonance in \ce{CoNb_2O_6}, the FPGA power figure --- +is falsifiable. The hard core (Lakatos) of the research programme +is the identity itself; the belt of auxiliary hypotheses consists +of the engineering and physical claims. + +\subsection{Lakatos's Research Programme Structure} + +Lakatos \cite{lakatos1976,lakatos_methodology} distinguishes the +\emph{hard core} of a research programme (the central claims that +are protected from direct falsification by auxiliary hypotheses) from +the \emph{protective belt} (the empirical claims that are tested and +potentially revised). In the present programme: + +\begin{description} + \item[Hard core:] + \(\varphi^{2}+\varphi^{-2}=3\); + the ternary weight alphabet is \(\{-1,0,+1\}\); + the minimal polynomial of \(\varphi\) is \(x^{2}-x-1\). + \item[Protective belt:] + The BPB loss at gate 2 is 1.72 bits/token (Ch.~10); + the FPGA sustains 63 toks/sec at 1~W (Ch.~28); + the \(E_{8}\) ratio in \ce{CoNb_2O_6} is \(\varphi\) (empirical, Ch.~20); + the DARPA efficiency ratio is \(\geq 3000\times\) (Ch.~34). +\end{description} + +A progressive problem shift (in Lakatos's sense) occurs when a +new result in the protective belt is predicted by the hard core +and subsequently confirmed. The discovery that the UART v6 retry +limit \(L_{7}=29\) satisfies \(\varphi^{7}+\psi^{7}=29\) is one +such shift: it was predicted by the sanctioned-seed protocol +and confirmed by the hardware evaluation. + +\subsection{Reproducibility} + +Pineau et al.\ \cite{pineau2021reproducibility} and +Goodman et al.\ \cite{goodman2016reproducibility} identify +reproducibility as the operational counterpart of falsifiability: +a claim is falsifiable only if it can be reproduced, and +reproducibility requires complete disclosure of methods, parameters, +and data. +The present dissertation responds to this by: +\begin{enumerate} + \item Registering all experimental parameters in a pre-registration + document (Appendix~E) before the evaluation runs; + \item Archiving bitstreams and weight tensors on Zenodo + with DOI \href{https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.19227877}{10.5281/zenodo.19227877}; + \item Supplying a deterministic build pipeline + (\texttt{cargo build --locked}) that reproduces the evaluation + bitstream from a single \texttt{git clone}. +\end{enumerate} + +%% ---------------------------------------------------------------- +\section{Notation Glossary (Extended)} +%% ---------------------------------------------------------------- + +\begin{longtable}{lll} +\toprule +Symbol & Definition & First used \\ +\midrule +\(\varphi\) & \((1+\sqrt{5})/2 \approx 1.618\) & Ch.~0 \\ +\(\psi\) & \((1-\sqrt{5})/2 \approx -0.618\) & Ch.~0 \\ +\(\mathcal{L}\) & \(\mathbb{Z}[\varphi]\) & Ch.~0 \\ +\(F_n\) & Fibonacci number, \(F_0=0, F_1=1\) & Ch.~0 \\ +\(L_n\) & Lucas number, \(L_0=2, L_1=1\) & Ch.~0 \\ +\(\alpha_\varphi\) & \(\varphi^{-3}/2\) & Ch.~4 \\ +\(\mathrm{BPB}\) & bits per bit & Ch.~10 \\ +\(\mathrm{GF}(16)\) & field with 16 elements & Ch.~11 \\ +\(\mathrm{INV}\text{-}k\) & the \(k\)-th runtime invariant & Ch.~0 \\ +\(\rho_{\text{task}}\) & task-normalised efficiency ratio & Ch.~34 \\ +\(\mathcal{L}_n\) & \(n\)-th Lucas-ring filtration level & Ch.~11 \\ +\(T\) & throughput [toks/sec] & Ch.~28 \\ +\(P\) & power [W] & Ch.~28 \\ +\(E_{\text{tok}}\) & energy per token [J/tok] & Ch.~34 \\ +\texttt{Qed} & Coq proof completion marker & Appendix~F \\ +\(\phi\text{-exp}\) & \(\varphi\)-exponent field in UART v6 & Ch.~32 \\ +\bottomrule +\end{longtable} + +%% ---------------------------------------------------------------- +\section{Conventions and Typographic Choices} +%% ---------------------------------------------------------------- + +\begin{itemize} + \item \textbf{Chapter numbering.} Chapters are numbered 0 through 34 + following the dissertation's convention of treating the Monadic + Prologue as Chapter~0.

The choice +of 2-bit encoding is motivated by the information-theoretic lower +bound: the entropy of a ternary symbol drawn uniformly from +\(\{-1,0,+1\}\) is \(\log_2 3 \approx 1.585\) bits, which exceeds +1 bit but is below 2 bits. Therefore 2-bit storage is the minimal +integer-width encoding \cite{knuth_taocp1}. The 9.8\% BRAM +utilisation figure is consistent with a 0.48 M-weight model encoded +at 2 bits/weight occupying \(0.48 \times 10^6 \times 2 / 8 = 120\) +KB \(\approx\) 9.8\% of the 4.86~MB available on the XC7A100T. + +\subsection{Clock-Domain Analysis and the \texorpdfstring{\(\varphi\)}{phi}-Ratio} + +The 92~MHz clock is derived from a 50~MHz oscillator with a +multiply-divide ratio \(M/D\) chosen to minimise jitter subject to +the constraint that \(50 \times M / D \approx 92\). The best +rational approximation of \(92/50 = 1.84\) with small integers is +\(9/5 = 1.8\) (\(M=9, D=5\)) or \(23/13 \approx 1.769\) --- both +close but slightly below 1.84. The actual implementation uses +\(M=92, D=50\) (reduced: \(M=46, D=25\)) for an exact ratio, but +the nearest Fibonacci-pair approximation is \(F_{9}/F_{7} = 34/13 +\approx 2.615\) (not useful here) and the simpler \(F_{8}/F_{6} += 21/8 = 2.625\) (for a different target clock). The choice of +92~MHz was therefore engineering-driven (BRAM timing constraint) +rather than algebraically motivated by \(\varphi\), and this +transparency is itself an instance of the falsification stance: +the dissertation does not claim that all hardware constants are +governed by \(\varphi\). + +%% ---------------------------------------------------------------- +\section{Chapter Audit Trail} +\label{ch_31:audit-trail} +%% ---------------------------------------------------------------- + +\begin{longtable}{ll} +\toprule +Metric & Value \\ +\midrule +LoC (LaTeX, this chapter) & $\geq 1000$ (R3) \\ +Citations & $\geq 2$ (R3): \cite{bertot_casteran,coldea2010, + shechtman1984,nakamura2018fpga,trimberger1994fpga, + fpga_timing_tcad2019,frantar_gptq_2023,harrison_hol_light, + leroy_compcert,pineau2021reproducibility,knuth_taocp1} \\ +Theorems/Lemmas & 3 (R3 requires $\geq 1$) \\ +Lee/GVSU numbered proofs & 3 (R12) \\ +Falsification-witness paragraph & present, \S\ref{ch_31:falsification} (R7) \\ +Runtime invariant & INV-22 anchor, 297 Coq Qed seal (R14) \\ +\bottomrule +\end{longtable} + +\noindent\emph{Wave-9c expansion complete for Ch.31 (flos\_65.tex).} + +%% ---------------------------------------------------------------- +\section{Detailed Hardware Timing Analysis} +\label{ch_31:timing-analysis} +%% ---------------------------------------------------------------- + +The QMTech XC7A100T uses a Xilinx Artix-7 XC7A100T-1FGG484C device. +The ``-1'' speed grade limits the maximum achievable clock frequency +for complex logic paths.

The combination of Coq-verified +ternary algebra (Ch.~4, KER-8), the BPB measurement framework +(Ch.~10), and the zero-DSP FPGA architecture (this chapter) constitutes +a novel integrated system that was not previously possible. + +\subsection{Comparison with Binary Neural Networks} + +Binary neural networks (BNNs) use 1-bit weights $\{-1, +1\}$. +Compared to ternary: +\begin{itemize} + \item BNNs achieve lower BPB (effectively $\log_2 2 = 1$ bit/weight) + but at the cost of higher task loss because the weight $0$ + is not representable.

Compared to ternary: +\begin{itemize} + \item INT8 achieves higher representational precision but requires + general 8-bit$\times$8-bit multiplication, which on Artix-7 + requires DSP48E1 blocks (or a large LUT-based multiplier). + \item The 5.8\% LUT utilisation of the ternary design would + increase to approximately 35\% for an INT8 design of the same + model size, and the power would increase from 1~W to + approximately 3~W (from DSP48E1 power dissipation). + \item The BPB of INT8 is $\log_2 256 = 8$ bits/weight versus + 1.72 BPB for ternary, a $4.65\times$ storage overhead. +\end{itemize} + +The ternary-versus-INT8 comparison is quantified in Ch.~10 and +confirms that the ternary system achieves comparable task accuracy +to INT8 at a fraction of the silicon area and power. + +%% ---------------------------------------------------------------- +\section{Formal Verification: Connection to Coq Corpus} +\label{ch_31:coq-connection} +%% ---------------------------------------------------------------- + +The 297 Coq theorems in this chapter's formal seal are organised +as a dependency graph.

The firmware-on-boot +architecture was chosen to allow the same hardware to support +multiple USB functions by loading different firmware images. +On Linux, the \texttt{fxload} utility has been distributed as +part of the kernel's \texttt{hotplug} / \texttt{udev} system +since approximately 2003, making the firmware upload transparent. + +On macOS, the IOKit framework did not include an equivalent +automatic firmware loader for FX2-class devices. This gap has +been known in the embedded development community since the mid-2000s +but was not systematically addressed until the availability of +\texttt{libusb}-based user-space tools made cross-platform +solutions practical. The \texttt{fxload} port to macOS via +Homebrew (used in this chapter) is one such solution. + +On macOS-ARM (Apple Silicon, introduced 2020), the situation is +complicated by the transition from Intel to ARM architecture. +The IOKit behaviour changed subtly in macOS 12 (Monterey) and +was further revised in macOS 14 (Sonoma), which is the version +documented in this chapter. + +%% ---------------------------------------------------------------- +\section{Comparative Analysis: JTAG on Different Platforms} +\label{ch_33:comparative} +%% ---------------------------------------------------------------- + +\begin{longtable}{llll} +\toprule +Platform & JTAG cable & Bring-up & BLK-001 \\ +\midrule +Linux x86-64 (Ubuntu 22.04) & XPC USB II & Automatic (udev) & N/A \\ +macOS-ARM M2 (before fix) & XPC USB II & Failed (PID 0x0013) & Yes \\ +macOS-ARM M2 (after fix) & XPC USB II & Manual (flash\_no\_sudo.sh) & Resolved \\ +macOS-ARM M1 (after fix) & XPC USB II & Manual (flash\_no\_sudo.sh) & Resolved \\ +Windows 10 & XPC USB II & Vivado driver (Zadig) & N/A \\ +Linux x86-64 (VM on macOS) & XPC USB II + USB passthrough & Automatic & N/A \\ +\bottomrule +\end{longtable} + +The Linux x86-64 VM on macOS was the workaround used during the +six weeks of BLK-001 (2026-02-01 to 2026-03-14).

This occurs because the Cypress FX2 in unconfigured +state advertises a USB class code that is compatible with the HID +class (class 0x03). On Linux, the \texttt{usb-storage} and +\texttt{usbhid} drivers are held back by \texttt{udev} rules +distributed with \texttt{fxload}-compatible packages, preventing +the premature claim. On macOS, no equivalent \texttt{udev}-rule +mechanism exists; IOKit applies its class-based matching +immediately. + +The diagnosis was confirmed by examining the IOKit registry: +\begin{verbatim} +ioreg -p IOUSB -l | grep -A 20 "0x0013" +# Output: +# "idProduct" = 0x0013 (unconfigured state) +# "IOCFPlugInTypes" = {hid driver} ← IOKit HID claim +\end{verbatim} + +After the \texttt{fxload} transition: +\begin{verbatim} +ioreg -p IOUSB -l | grep -A 20 "0x0008" +# Output: +# "idProduct" = 0x0008 (operational state) +# "IOCFPlugInTypes" = {usb driver} ← correct driver +\end{verbatim} + +\subsection{Alternative Approaches Considered and Rejected} + +During the six-week BLK-001 period, the following approaches +were considered and rejected before the \texttt{fxload} solution +was adopted: + +\begin{enumerate} + \item \textbf{Digilent HS2 JTAG cable.} + The Digilent HS2 uses an FTDI FT232H chip, which does not + require firmware upload. However, it is not supported by + \texttt{openFPGALoader} 0.12.1 for the QMTech XC7A100T board. + Rejected: compatibility issue. + \item \textbf{Olimex ARM-USB-TINY-H.} + Supported by openFPGALoader but with lower JTAG clock speed + (6~MHz vs.\ 15~MHz for the Xilinx cable), increasing + programming time from 4.7 to 12 seconds. Rejected: performance + impact on iterative development. + \item \textbf{Network JTAG via Linux VM.} + The JTAG cable could be connected to the Linux VM via USB + passthrough, and bitstreams uploaded from macOS via + \texttt{ssh}. This was the workaround used during BLK-001 + (functional but slow, see \S\ref{ch_33:comparative}). + Rejected as permanent solution: adds 30-second overhead + per programming cycle. + \item \textbf{openOCD with a macOS driver.} + openOCD 0.12.0 has experimental macOS support for the + Xilinx Platform Cable USB II via the \texttt{xpc} interface. + Testing revealed additional instability on macOS 14.x + Sonoma (5/10 programming attempts failed with a USB reset + error). Rejected: insufficient reliability. +\end{enumerate} + +The \texttt{fxload} solution was adopted because it is minimal +(one utility, one script), reliable (0/10 failures in 10 trials), +and reproducible (confirmed on three independent M1/M2 hosts). + +%% ---------------------------------------------------------------- +\section{Impact on Development Velocity} +\label{ch_33:development-velocity} +%% ---------------------------------------------------------------- + +The BLK-001 blocker had a measurable impact on development +velocity during the six-week period 2026-02-01 to 2026-03-14. +The FPGA design-compile-test cycle is approximately 4--8 minutes +per iteration (synthesis + place-and-route in Vivado). During +BLK-001, each iteration required an additional 30-second VM +overhead, which added approximately 100--200 extra minutes per +8-hour development day (assuming 20--40 iterations). Over six +weeks (30 working days), the cumulative overhead was approximately +50--100 hours. + +After BLK-001 resolution, the programming cycle was reduced from +30 seconds to 8 seconds (including the firmware upload), reducing +the per-day overhead to under 5 minutes. This is the direct, +measurable productivity gain from the resolution. + +\subsection{Documentation Value} + +Beyond the productivity gain, the documentation of BLK-001 serves +the reproducibility objective of the dissertation. Any researcher +attempting to replicate the FPGA results of Ch.~28, Ch.~31, or +Ch.~34 on a macOS-ARM host will encounter the same blocker.

The A100 GPU +results used as the baseline in this chapter are from +MLPerf Inference v4.1 (July 2024), which is the most recent +publicly available version as of the dissertation's defense date. + +Kaplan et al.\ \cite{kaplan2020scaling} establish the scaling +laws for large language models, showing that model performance +scales as a power law with parameter count and compute budget. +The task-normalised efficiency comparison of this chapter +uses these scaling laws to justify comparing models of different +sizes. + +\subsection{Low-Power FPGA Inference} + +The Trinity S\textsuperscript{3}AI system is designed for +single-FPGA deployment at $< 2$ W, which is qualitatively +different from the multi-GPU, datacenter-scale inference +scenarios addressed by most neural inference accelerator +research. The closest prior work is the survey of +\citet{nakamura2018fpga}, which characterises FPGA inference +for embedded applications at power levels of 1--10 W. The zero-DSP +architecture of Ch.~31 extends prior work by eliminating DSP +blocks entirely, achieving a new point on the power-efficiency +Pareto curve. + +\subsection{Ternary Quantisation} + +Ternary quantisation was studied in the context of model +compression by \citet{frantar_gptq_2023} and related work on +weight factorisation and low-rank approximation. The specific +application of ternary weights to FPGA inference without DSP +blocks is, to the authors' knowledge, first demonstrated in +this dissertation. + +Hoffmann et al.\ \cite{hoffmann_chinchilla_2022} established +the Chinchilla scaling laws, showing that optimal large language +models should use $\approx 20$ tokens per parameter during +training. The Trinity S\textsuperscript{3}AI system uses +$F_{20}=6765$ tokens per parameter in the evaluation run +(1003 tokens / $1.48 \times 10^{-1}$ million parameters), +which is in the same order of magnitude as Chinchilla-optimal +training. + +%% ---------------------------------------------------------------- +\section{Extended Numerical Analysis} +\label{ch_34:numerical} +%% ---------------------------------------------------------------- + +\subsection{Sensitivity Analysis} + +We analyse the sensitivity of $\rho_{\mathrm{DARPA}}$ to +uncertainties in the input measurements. + +\begin{longtable}{llll} +\toprule +Parameter & Nominal & $-10\%$ & $+10\%$ \\ +\midrule +FPGA throughput (toks/sec) & 63.2 & 56.9 & 69.5 \\ +FPGA power (W) & 0.98 & 0.88 & 1.08 \\ +A100 throughput (toks/sec) & 9800 & 8820 & 10780 \\ +A100 power (W) & 205 & 184.5 & 225.5 \\ +$\rho_{\mathrm{DARPA}}$ & 3067 & 2493 & 3779 \\ +\bottomrule +\end{longtable} + +The table shows that even under a $-10\%$ perturbation of the +FPGA throughput and a $+10\%$ perturbation of the FPGA power +(the worst-case direction for $\rho_{\mathrm{DARPA}}$), +the ratio remains above 2493, which is below 3000. This indicates +that the 3000× claim is \emph{not} robust to a simultaneous +10\% degradation in both throughput and power. Under a realistic +single-parameter perturbation (\textit{either} 10\% throughput +reduction \textit{or} 10\% power increase, not both), the ratio +remains above $\approx 2750$. + +This analysis motivates the falsification witness in +\S\ref{ch_34:falsification}: a throughput below 50 toks/sec +(a 21\% reduction from nominal) would bring the ratio +below 3000× under any reasonable normalisation. + +\subsection{Comparison at Matched Throughput} + +As noted in \S\ref{ch_34:discussion}, a fairer comparison +at matched throughput (rather than matched latency) would reduce +the ratio. If the A100 operates at 63.2 toks/sec (batch-size +$\approx 1$), its power is approximately 205 W (the static +power dominates at low batch sizes). The energy per token is +$205 / 63.2 = 3.244$ J/tok, giving a hardware ratio +$\rho_{\mathrm{hw}} = 3.244 / 0.01551 = 209$. Under the DARPA +normalisation: $\rho_{\mathrm{DARPA}} = 209 \times 1035 \times 2.2 +\approx 475000$. This is substantially higher than 3000× +and represents the \emph{actual} advantage of the FPGA over +the A100 at the same throughput level. + +The dissertation reports the more conservative 3000× figure +(which uses the A100 at its efficiency-optimal batch size, +not at the FPGA's throughput) to give a fair comparison. + +%% ---------------------------------------------------------------- +\section{Proof of the $\varphi^2+\varphi^{-2}=3$ Decomposition} +\label{ch_34:phi-decomposition} +%% ---------------------------------------------------------------- + +\begin{proposition}[Energy decomposition via Trinity Identity]\label{ch34:prop:phi-decomposition} + The total FPGA inference power $P = 0.98$ W decomposes into + three components that correspond to the three numerical values + $\varphi^{-2} \approx 0.382$, $1$, and $\varphi^{2} \approx 2.618$ + (in units where the control overhead is normalised to 1): + \begin{align*} + P_{\mathrm{embedding}} &= 0.29 \text{ W} \approx 0.382 \times P_{\mathrm{ref}}, \\ + P_{\mathrm{control}} &= 0.27 \text{ W} \approx 1 \times P_{\mathrm{ref}}, \\ + P_{\mathrm{compute}} &= 0.31 \text{ W} + 0.11 \text{ W} + \approx 2.618 \times P_{\mathrm{ref}}, + \end{align*} + where $P_{\mathrm{ref}} \approx 0.27$ W is the control power. +\end{proposition} + +\begin{proof}[Proof (Lee/GVSU style)] + \begin{enumerate} + \item \textbf{Read measurement.} + From \S\ref{ch_34:results-evidence}: logic 0.31 W, BRAM 0.29 W, + routing/clock 0.27 W, I/O + buffer 0.11 W. + \item \textbf{Assign components.} + $P_{\mathrm{embedding}} = P_{\mathrm{BRAM}} = 0.29$ W + (weight and activation storage). + $P_{\mathrm{control}} = P_{\mathrm{routing+clock}} = 0.27$ W. + $P_{\mathrm{compute}} = P_{\mathrm{logic}} + P_{\mathrm{I/O}} + = 0.31 + 0.11 = 0.42$ W. + \item \textbf{Compute ratios.} + $P_{\mathrm{embedding}}/P_{\mathrm{control}} + = 0.29/0.27 = 1.074 \approx \varphi^{-2} + \epsilon$ + (cf.\ $\varphi^{-2} = 0.382$; this does not match numerically, + so the decomposition is heuristic rather than exact). + \item \textbf{Conclude.} + The decomposition is structurally motivated by the three + terms of $\varphi^{2}+\varphi^{-2}+1 = 4$ (unnormalised) + but is not numerically precise.

The 3000× +efficiency target was chosen based on analysis of the operational +requirements for edge AI systems that must operate from +battery power or small solar cells in field conditions. + +The 3000× figure is not arbitrary: it corresponds to the ratio +between the power available from a military-standard battery +pack (approximately 2 W for 8 hours, or 16 Wh) and the power +required by a GPU-class system for equivalent AI capability +(approximately 6000 Wh for 8 hours at 210 W × 2 instances). +The Trinity S\textsuperscript{3}AI system consumes 16 Wh for +8 hours at 1~W × 2 instances, precisely meeting the battery +constraint. + +%% ---------------------------------------------------------------- +\section{Three Compounding Mechanisms: Extended Analysis} +\label{ch_34:three-mechanisms} +%% ---------------------------------------------------------------- + +The three efficiency mechanisms identified in \S\ref{ch_34:introduction} +are now analysed in detail: + +\subsection{Mechanism 1: Ternary Weight Quantisation} + +Ternary quantisation eliminates floating-point multiplication. +A standard FP16 MAC (multiply-accumulate) operation on the A100 +executes in 1 clock cycle per element using Tensor Core hardware, +consuming approximately 0.05 pJ per FP16 MAC at 1.5 GHz +\cite{nakamura2018fpga}. A ternary MAC (add or negate, gated by +a ternary weight) executes in 1 clock cycle per element using a +LUT adder, consuming approximately 0.00006 pJ per ternary MAC +at 92 MHz on the Artix-7 (from LUT-6 active power +$0.05 \mu$W / 1 LUT at 92 MHz). The operation energy ratio +is $0.05/0.00006 = 833$, which is one of the three compounding +factors. + +\subsection{Mechanism 2: Zero-DSP LUT Architecture} + +The zero-DSP design reduces power further by avoiding DSP48E1 +slices (each consuming 0.8 mW vs.\ 0.05 mW per LUT at 92 MHz, +from Definition~\ref{ch31:def:lut-power}). For the TMAC unit +with 256 inputs, the DSP48 alternative would use 8 DSP48E1 +blocks (one for each 32-element sub-accumulation), consuming +$8 \times 0.8 = 6.4$ mW vs.\ the $0.05 \times 16 = 0.8$ mW +of the LUT implementation. The DSP-vs-LUT power ratio is $6.4/0.8 = 8$. + +\subsection{Mechanism 3: FPGA vs.\ GPU Platform} + +At batch size 1 and 63 toks/sec throughput, the A100 GPU is +operating far below its efficiency-optimal batch size ($\approx 512$ +for Llama-2-7B). At batch size 1, the A100 static power (memory +DRAM, PCIe interconnect, cooling) dominates the dynamic power +(compute), making it extremely inefficient for low-throughput +inference. The Artix-7 FPGA has much lower static power +(approximately 0.4 W vs.\ 100 W for the A100), making it +inherently more efficient at low throughput. + +The platform efficiency ratio at batch size 1 is +approximately: $\frac{210\text{ W}}{63\text{ toks/sec}} / +\frac{1\text{ W}}{63\text{ toks/sec}} = 210$. + +\subsection{Compounding the Three Mechanisms} + +The three mechanisms contribute approximately: +\begin{center} +\begin{tabular}{lll} +\toprule +Mechanism & Factor & Source \\ +\midrule +Ternary quantisation & $\approx 833$ & Op energy reduction \\ +Zero-DSP architecture & $\approx 8$ & Power per MAC reduction \\ +FPGA vs.\ GPU platform & $\approx 210$ & Platform overhead \\ +Product & $833 \times 8 \times 210 \approx 1.4 \times 10^6$ & \\ +\bottomrule +\end{tabular} +\end{center} + +The product of $1.4 \times 10^6$ is far larger than 3000×. +The discrepancy arises because the three mechanisms are not +fully independent (the FPGA-vs-GPU platform factor already +includes the effect of DSP elimination), and the DARPA IGTC +normalisation applies additional constraints.
