Abstract

See full text

Some embodiments provided a method of designing a configurable IC. The method includes receiving a first design that has at least one controllable circuit that is initialized by a first type of initialization signal. This first design also at least one controllable circuit that is initialized by a second type of initialization signal. The method defines a second design based on the first design. The method defines this second design by replacing all controllable circuits that are initialized by the first type of initialization signal with functionally equivalent controllable circuits. Each of these functionally equivalent controllable circuits includes a particular controllable circuit that is initialized by the second type initialization signal.
