Abstract

Some embodiments provide a configurable integrated circuit (IC). The IC has configurable logic circuits for performing logical operations, configurable routing circuits for routing signals between the configurable logic circuits, and a network for monitoring data. In some embodiments a method uses at least a subset of the configurable logic circuits and a first subset of the configurable routing circuits to implement a user design circuit on the configurable IC. The method uses a second subset of the configurable routing circuits to pass signals to the network.
