  • Integrated circuit device having at least one of a plurality of bond pads with a selectable plurality of input-output functionalities
    Patent number: 7436207
    Abstract: An integrated circuit device having at least one bond pad is coupled to a selectable plurality of input-output functionalities, e.g., an oscillator input, an analog input, an analog output, a digital input and a digital output. These analog, digital and oscillator functionalities may selectably share the same integrated circuit package external connection.
