1. An integrated circuit (IC) comprising:
- a) first and second tiles comprising sets of reconfigurable circuits;
b) first and second sets of configuration data for reconfiguring the sets of reconfigurable circuits of the first and second tiles; and
c) a clock for supplying a clock signal to the first and second tiles, wherein the set of circuits of the first tile receive N number of configuration data sets of the first set of configuration data at a first rate based on the clock signal and the set of circuits of the second tile receive M number of configuration data sets of the second set of configuration data at a second rate based on the clock signal.

Abstract
Some embodiments provide a reconfigurable IC that includes at least two sections, each with several configurable circuits. Each configurable circuit configurably performs a set of operations. Each section stores multiple configuration data sets for each configurable circuit. Each configuration data set for a particular configurable circuit specifies the operation that the particular configurable circuit has to perform from the circuit'"'"'s set of operations, where the configurable circuits of different sections iterate through different numbers of configuration data sets.
