BOARD TEST MODE OPERATION

By driving the nTESTEN pin low, the device will be placed into a special test mode to allow verification of attachment

of the device to the circuit board. Every pin except the TSTOUT, XTAL2, and the power and ground pins become an

input to an XNOR chain, as shown below, to allow continuity to be tested on the board. This test should individually

toggle the state of the trace connected to the pin being examined for continuity, and the TSTOUT pin monitored for

toggle of state. If no toggle occurs, either the pin under test is discontinuous, or the TSTOUT pin is not connected on

the board
