1. A reconfigurable IC comprising:

  • a plurality of sections comprising first and second sections,each section including a plurality of configurable circuits,each configurable circuit for configurably performing a set of operations;

    each section storing multiple configuration data sets for each configurable circuit, each configuration data set for a particular configurable circuit specifying the operation that the particular configurable circuit has to perform from the circuit'"'"'s set of operations;

    wherein the configurable circuits of the first and second sections change configuration data sets at two different reconfiguration rates;

    a first clock signal for setting a reconfiguration rate for configuration data sets in the first section; and
