Abstract
A method of configuring a plurality of configurable integrated circuit dies including receiving a configuration data stream at a die stack. The configuration data stream includes configuration memory data for logic devices located on dies in the die stack. At least two of the dies are located on different substrates. The method also includes, performing for each of the dies in the die stack: receiving the configuration memory data for the die, storing the configuration memory data for the die in a configuration memory on the die, determining whether the configuration data stream includes configuration memory data for an additional die in the die stack, and transmitting the configuration data stream to the additional die in the die stack in response to the configuration data stream including configuration memory data for the additional die in the die stack.
