Abstract
In described examples, an integrated circuit comprising a first pin and a second pin. A switchable resistive element is coupled between the first pin and the second pin and has a pull down resistance state or a high resistance state. A comparator has a first comparator input coupled with the first pin, a reference signal input, and a comparator output. A logic circuit has an input coupled with the comparator output, an internal power good signal input, and a control signal output. The control signal output is coupled with the switchable resistive element to select the pull down resistance state or the high resistance state.
