Yes, circuit courts do have 3 judge panels. In the US Circuit Courts or US Courts of Appeals, a case is almost always heard by a panel of three judges, "three-judge panel", who are randomly selected from the available judges including senior judges and judges temporarily assigned to the circuit. In some complex cases, the entire panel of judges at the court can consider hearing the case, rather than a panel of three judges. Such request for hearing is known as "En banc". Federal Rules, Title 28, Chapter 3 §46 "Assignment of judges; panels; hearings; quorum" elaborates in detail.
