Some embodiments of the invention provide configurable via programmable gate array ("VPGA") with several configurable circuits arranged in a configurable circuit arrangement. In some embodiments, the configurable circuit arrangement is a configurable circuit arrangement that includes numerous (e.g., 50, 100, etc.) configurable circuits that are arranged in several rows and columns. This circuit arrangement also includes several direct offset connections, where each particular direct offset connection connects two configurable circuits that are neither in the same column nor in the same row in the circuit arrangement. In some embodiments, at least some direct offset connections connect pairs of circuits that are separated in the circuit arrangement by more than one row and at least one column, or by more than one column and at least one row. At least some of the configurable circuits are via programmable ("VP") configured circuits.
