Abstract
In an example there is provided a configurable integrated circuit. The configurable integrated circuit comprises a configuration pin, configuration circuitry, and a controller. The configuration pin is for coupling with an external memory device. The configuration circuitry is to determine a resistance value between the configuration pin and a reference voltage. The controller configured to select a configuration mode for the integrated circuit based on the resistance value determined by the configuration circuitry. The configuration mode is one of an internal configuration mode in which the integrated circuit is configured based on data stored in the integrated circuit, and an external configuration mode in which the integrated circuit is configured based on data read from an external memory device coupled to the configuration pin.
