Today, there are a lot of application areas, where a circuit, which is able to
perform different functions in different situations, may be useful. Typically,
polymorphic circuits provide very area-efficient implementation and have also
embedded and distributed sensing of an environment state. It might be a useful
attribute to be considered for a dependable system design. This paper is dealing
with a more complex polymorphic circuits with dependability feature and their
physical implementation. The actual experimental setup was based around
reconfigurable polymorphic chip REPOMO32 as a target environment, which is
primarily designed to be configured (besides the configuration bit stream itself)
by means of using the level of power supply voltage (Vdd). A part of polymorphic
FIR filter was mapped onto the resources available inside REPOMO32 chip. Obtained
results indicate feasibility of a full-scale implementation comprising several
REPOMO32 chips.
