ABSTRACT:
An integrated circuit includes a reset connection to reset the device in response to an externally provided signal. The reset connection is used during test operations to receive elevated supply voltages. The reset connection is coupled to a bias circuit to maintain an inactive state such that the integrated circuit is not reset during the test operation when the reset connection is not actively driven by the external supply.
