Abstract
Circuits and methods for testing voltage monitor circuits are provided. In one embodiment, a method includes setting voltage monitor circuits to test mode; setting, a monitor reference in each voltage monitor circuit, to a respective targeted threshold voltage using a corresponding trim code; ramping, a voltage provided to a subset of voltage monitor circuits, from a first voltage to a second voltage using a test voltage supply, voltages between the first voltage and the second voltage corresponding with targeted threshold voltages of the subset of voltage monitor circuits; determining, for each voltage monitor circuit in the subset of voltage monitor circuits, a voltage value of the test voltage supply resulting in a change in a logic state at an output of a corresponding voltage monitor circuit.
