Methods and systems for configuring a programmable logic device include receiving configuration data at an input of a first sector of the programmable logic device and dynamically routing the configuration data through the first sector to a second sector of the programmable device by selecting a first routing path out of the first sector or a second routing path out of the first sector.

Configuration of a programmable device

One embodiment relates to a method of controlling supply voltage regulation within an integrated circuit. An external interrupt is sent from an external interaction processing layer to a processor in the integrated circuit. Off-die instructions are generated by the external interaction processing layer and sent to the processor. The off-die instructions are executed by the processor to test and adjust supply voltage regulation within the integrated circuit on a sector-by-sector basis. Another embodiment relates to a method of controlling a supply voltage regulator for a sector of an integrated circuit. Commands are sent by a processor and translated by a sector manager to bits. The bits are loaded into registers so as to set the regulator control circuit to the testing mode send a supply voltage to an analog-to-digital converter. Other embodiments and features are also disclosed.
