1. A Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA), comprising:
- a field of clocked configurable logic cells which is operable in different configurations; and
a clock preselecting arrangement configured to preselect logic cell clocking, wherein;
each of at least some of the configurable logic cells is dedicated to data processing and comprises a fixedly implemented arithmetic logic unit (ALU), operation of the ALU being configurable at runtime; and
the clock preselecting arrangement is adapted to, depending on the configuration, preselect a first clock at least at a first cell of the clocked logic cells and preselect an additional clock at least at an additional cell of the clocked logic cells.

Abstract
A data processing unit having a field of clocked logic cells (PAEs) which is operable in different configuration states and a clock preselecting means for preselecting logic cell clocking. The clock preselecting means is designed in such a way that, depending on the state, a first clock is preselected at least at a first cell (PAE) and an additional clock is preselected at least at an additional cell.
