Abstract
A mode control circuit is disclosed which generates a mode control signal in response to an illegal state detected as a combination of inputs and outputs. An illegal state is forced by the application of a fixed voltage to an output pin. The mode control signal is used to switch input-output signals of a megacell internal to an application specific integrated circuit to the output pins of the package so that testing of the megacell is facilitated.
