Abstract
An integrated circuit includes a first circuit, a second circuit, at least one test pad and multiplexing circuitry. The second circuit is coupled to the first circuit and has substantially the same design as the first circuit to emulate an electrical characteristic of the first circuit. The multiplexing circuitry selectively couples the test pad(s) to the second circuit to selectively measure the electrical characteristic.
