Abstract

A circuit can include a comparator, a resistor divider, a control circuit, and a multiplexer. The comparator compares an internal supply voltage of the circuit to a selected reference voltage. The resistor divider generates reference voltages. The control circuit receives an output signal of the comparator and generates a select signal. The multiplexer transmits one of the reference voltages from the resistor divider to the comparator as the selected reference voltage in response to the select signal.
