ABSTRACT:
A programmable integrated circuit (IC) arrangement includes at least one input/output terminal, at least two receiver/source terminals for selectable electrical connection to the at least one input/output terminal, and a plurality of layers electrically interconnected with one another and providing electrical connection between the at least one input/output terminal and at least one of the at least two receiver/source terminals. At least a sub-plurality of the plurality of layers includes electrically conductive components selectably providable at at least two positions so as to selectably program electrical connection between the at least one input/output terminal and the at least two receiver/source terminals. The selectably providable electrically conductive components include ones of selectably providable vias, switch-contacts and well regions. The plurality of layers can include many different types and constructions.
