Abstract
A method to trim a reference voltage source formed on an integrated circuit includes configuring the integrated circuit in a test mode; providing a power supply voltage and a trim code sequence to the integrated circuit where the power supply voltage is provided by a precision reference voltage source; generating a target voltage on the integrated circuit using the power supply voltage; generate a reference voltage using the reference voltage source formed on the integrated circuit; applying one or more trim codes in the trim code sequence to the reference voltage source to adjust the reference voltage; comparing the reference voltage generated based on the trim codes to the target voltage; asserting a latch signal in response to a determination that the reference voltage generated based on a first trim code is equal to the target voltage; and storing the first trim code in response to the latch signal being asserted.
