| Summary: | A programmable device with contact via programming to reduce leakage current and a method for reducing standby power for such programmable device are described. Configuration memory cells are identified responsive to instantiation of a user design in a test platform of the programmable device. The programmable device is via programmed during manufacturing thereof to not couple for programmability a first portion of the configuration memory cells and to form a first portion of the user design associated with the first portion of the configuration memory cells as hard-wired and to couple for programmability a second portion of the configuration memory cells for subsequent instantiation of a second portion of the user design in the programmable device. |
