A nonvolatile power management apparatus that controls the use of power within an integrated circuit. The embodiment varies the power applied to a functional circuit within the integrated circuit. At nominal power, the functional circuit operates normally per nominal operational specifications. Under reduced power, the integrated circuit retains all of its internal states, but has its I/O nets isolated from external circuitry. This prevents latch-up of the functional circuit operating from reduced power (low power input voltage) and prevents external circuitry connected to the integrated circuit from being overloaded.

Nonvolatile power management apparatus for integrated circuit application

An electrical test fixture used to connect the probes of an electronic test instrument to the pins of any integrated circuit. Made from flexible material, the fixture folds above the integrated circuit under test bringing test point pins to useable position. The integrated circuit ususally is soldered to the test fixture and the test fixture soldered into the target circuit. Provides for noninvasive pickoff of integrated circuit signals. Allows production versions of a design to be identical to the prototype version.

A power management apparatus that controls the use of power within an integrated circuit. A first embodiment gates integrated circuit power on or off concurrently with switches inserted between the co-resident functional circuit I/O nets and the integrated circuit I/O pads. A second embodiment instantiates the power management apparatus on an integrated circuit by itself for connection to external integrated circuits. Buffering or sequencing is provided for both embodiments.
