Abstract
A semiconductor circuit provides at least one first electrical pin with multiple signal assignment or potential assignment in order to integrate several circuit variants in the semiconductor circuit. It has a switch element for isolating or connecting at least one first electrical pin from or to an input or output of a functional unit integrated in the semiconductor circuit.
Claims11
A semiconductor circuit comprising:
- at least one first electrical pin each of which is assigned alternatively multiple signals or multiple potentials, wherein each signal or each potential corresponds to a circuit variant integrated alternatively in the semiconductor circuit;
- and
- at least one switch element for isolating or connecting the at least one first electrical pin from or to an input or output of at least one functional unit integrated in the semiconductor circuit.
