Abstract
Methods for partial reconfiguration compatibility detection in an integrated circuit device are disclosed. A disclosed method includes storing a unique identifier that identifies a partial reconfiguration region of the integrated circuit device in a storage circuit. A control circuit may receive an input partial reconfiguration data that activates the operations of the partial reconfiguration region. The method further includes comparing the input partial reconfiguration data to the stored unique identifier prior to activating the operations of the partial reconfiguration region of the integrated circuit device. The input partial reconfiguration data may contain an associated identifier that is derived from the unique identifier during a design compilation operation of the integrated circuit device.
