Abstract
A control pad is split into two sections for output one of three signals selected from the group consisted of 00, 01, and 11 on an integrated circuit. Each section is internally connected to different voltage sources, say Vdd which represents logical '1', or Vss which represents logical '0', so that a default output is 1,0. When the split control pad is bonded with outside Vdd or Vss, both sections output “1,1” or “0,0” respectively. One of three possible logic word combinations can be selected to use for an IC.
