Abstract
In a field-programmable gate array (FPGA) configuration circuit, and a radio-frequency unit and a magnetic resonance system having a configuration circuit, the configuration circuit has at least two FPGA modules, each FPGA module being individually connected to a bus; at least two storage devices, each storage device storing a configuration file; one of the at least two FPGA modules being connected to the at least two storage devices separately, and an input end, connected separately to the at least two storage devices. A selection signal is provided for selecting one of the at least two storage devices. The FPGA module connected to the at least two storage devices reads a configuration file stored in a storage device selected on the basis of the selection signal, and sends, via the bus, the configuration file that has been read to the FPGA module other than the FPGA module connected to the at least two storage devices.
