Abstract
A method and system for the rapid and precise configuration of a bank of logic in a configurable system on a chip. The configuration memory array is partitioned into a plurality banks. Configuration circuitry is implemented for each bank. This allows for the configuration of one or more banks while the other banks remain operable.
