Reconfigurable data processing system

摘要

A reconfigurable processing system is provided that comprises a plurality of programmable processing modules arranged on a circuit board. Each of the programmable processing modules is capable of being populated by a programmable integrated circuit of a variety of processing capabilities. Conductive traces on the circuit board connect to the programmable processing modules and the conductive traces are arranged on the circuit board so as to accommodate use of the programmable integrated circuits of varying processing capabilities in the programmable processing modules without the need to alter conductive trace footprints on the circuit board for the programmable processing modules. At least one interface circuit arranged on the circuit board to interface signals to and from the circuit board.
