US Patent 11855616 Integrated circuit, control method, and system

An integrated circuit, a control method, and a system are provided, to improve reliability of the integrated circuit. The integrated circuit mainly includes a power supply pin, a configuration pin, a switchable pull-up resistor, and a control unit. The integrated circuit can provide a control signal for a target chip using the configuration pin of the integrated circuit. In the integrated circuit, a first end of the switchable pull-up resistor is connected to the power supply pin, a second end of the switchable pull-up resistor is connected to the configuration pin, and a control end of the switchable pull-up resistor is connected to the control unit. The power supply pin can receive a power supply voltage of the integrated circuit.
