Abstract
A programmable semiconductor system includes a programmable integrated circuit ('PIC') and storage capable of facilitating a multi-boot with backup default configuration ('MBC') process. The PIC, in one embodiment, includes a dual-mode port (“DMP”), configurable logic blocks (“LBs”), routing connections, and a configuration memory for providing configuration data to facilitate user-defined logic functions. The DMP, in one aspect, is operable to handle the configuration data during a configuration mode. Alternatively, the DMP is operable to handle the user data during a logic operation mode. In one aspect, the user configuration data contains the address of the second memory containing DCD.
