Abstract
An integrated circuit, such as a field programmable gate array or other configurable logic device, has an interconnect circuit selectively configurable to operate in a high-speed mode or in a low-power mode. The interconnect circuit is operable from a higher voltage supply or a lower voltage supply to change operating modes without reconfiguring data paths.
