Abstract
According to one embodiment, an integrated circuit is disclosed that includes a first input/output (I/O) circuit and a leakage detection circuit coupled to the first I/O circuit. In a test mode of operation, the leakage detection circuit tests the first I/O circuit for excessive leakage current. According to another embodiment, the integrated circuit also includes a first resistor coupled between a line voltage and the first I/O circuit and a second resistor coupled between the first I/O circuit and ground. Further, the integrated circuit includes a second I/O circuit coupled to the leakage detection circuit and the first and second resistors. The leakage circuit also tests the second I/O circuit for excessive leakage current in the test mode of operation.
