ABSTRACT:
A circuit for enabling off-chip measurement of an on-chip generated reference voltage and for effectuating the memory margin testing of nonvolatile memory cells in wells of a CMOS integrated circuit chip. The circuit is configured to selectively couple off-chip voltages of positive and negative potential to nodes on the chip while avoiding undesired forward biasing of p-n junctions. Control is initiated by varying the functions the input pads perform.
