Abstract

A semiconductor device contains an integrated circuit ('IC') capable of being selectively programmed to perform one or more logic functions. The device, in one embodiment, includes multiple logic blocks ('LBs'), a routing fabric, and a configurable wireless communication block (“WCB”). The configurable LBs is able to be selectively programmed to perform one or more logic functions. The routing fabric is used to route information between the configurable LBs and input/output ports based on a routing configuration signals. The configurable WCB, having a control circuit and a built-in transceiver, is configured to facilitate transmitting information between the IC and an external system via a wireless communications network.
