| 1. A field programmable gate array (FPGA) device comprising:
a non-non-programming-based default power-on electronic configuration defining a default state to initial a first logic function,
wherein the non-non-programming-based default power-on electronic configuration is one of a mask via circuit, an asynchronous
set/reset circuit, an unbalanced latch circuit, or a flush scan circuit.
