At least one control cell may also be included in the integrated circuit. The at least one control cell may indicate whether to use the settings stored in the first set of storage cells, or the alternate settings stored in the second set of storage cells, to control one or more operating parameters of the integrated circuit. Methods for using the alternate setting are also described.
