An electronic circuit comprises one or more upstream stages and two or more downstream stages positioned, in a processing direction of the signals, downstream of the upstream stage. A plurality of configurable connections is present between the upstream stage and the downstream stages. The connections are configurable to provide a predetermined communication path between a respective upstream stage and one or more selected downstream stage selected from the two or more downstream stages and to communicatively disconnect the upstream stage from not selected downstream stages. The electronic circuit may for example be an amplifier circuit.
