Abstract
Provided is a reconfigurable processor that may process a first type of operation in first mode using a first group of functional units, and process a second type of operation in second mode using a second group of functional units. The reconfigurable processor may selectively supply power to either the first group or the second group, in response to a mode-switch signal or a mode-switch instruction.
