Abstract
Built-in self-test (BIST) circuits and related methods are disclosed. An example BIST circuit includes a state machine to generate a control signal to reduce a gate voltage associated with a transistor from a first voltage to a second voltage when an enable signal is asserted, the transistor to be enabled at the first voltage and the second voltage, and assert an alert signal when a gate-to-source voltage associated with the transistor satisfies a threshold when the gate voltage is reduced to the second voltage.
