Abstract
A function programmable circuit and an operation method thereof are provided. The function programmable circuit includes a micro-controller unit (MCU) and a field programmable gate array (FPGA). The FPGA is coupled to the MCU, and is capable of being configured to execute a first function and work with the MCU in a first period, while the FPGA is being programmed a second function by the MCU in the same first period. The FPGA is controlled by a function switch pulse output from the MCU to terminate the first period, and switched from the first function to the second function, and then executes the second function and works with the MCU in a second period.
