Abstract
A method of implementing a partial reconfiguration in an integrated circuit device is described. The method comprises reading a netlist for a design of a circuit comprising a reconfigurable module; defining a first region of the integrated circuit device having the reconfigurable module; defining a second region that encompasses the first region; placing the reconfigurable module of the design in the first region, wherein the reconfigurable module comprises a partition pin of a plurality of available partition pins; selectively removing the partition pin; routing drivers and loads that are in the second region; and generating a partial bitstream for the reconfigurable module.
