METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR IMPLEMENTING PERIPHERY DEVICES ON A PROGRAMMABLE CIRCUIT USING PARTIAL RECONFIGURATION

A programmable circuit includes a physical interface at an input output (IO) periphery of the programmable circuit. The programmable circuit also includes a partial reconfigurable (PR) module, at the IO periphery of the programmable circuit, to implement a sequencer unit operable to configure the physical interface during a first instance of the PR module, and a controller unit operable to translate commands to the physical interface during a second instance of the PR module.
