The working principle of an FPGA can be best understood by looking at its basic internal structure. A typical FPGA comprises a number of configurable logic blocks (CLB) connected together via programmable interconnects. The CLBs are composed of memory elements and logic elements, which can be configured to perform a range of tasks. The logic elements, known as lookup tables (LUTs), provide the user with a range of functions such as logic operations, numerical calculations, and data manipulation. The user can also configure multiple CLBs and interconnects to perform large-scale computations.

The EP20K160EFC400-3 FPGA uses a synchronized dynamic reconfiguration (SDR) technique to reconfigure its logic blocks. This technique involves the use of a reconfigurable function block (RFBs) which is responsible for its reconfiguration. The RFBs are connected to the CLBs and have multiple control lines, which can be programmed to switch the CLB configuration states. The SDR technique provides users with the ability to rapidly reload the CLB configuration states in order to optimize the FPGA\'s performance.
