Integrierte Schaltung (Chip) mit einem diese in sich aufnehmenden Gehäuse und externer Konfigurationsmöglichkeit

摘要

An integrated circuit having a housing accommodating the integrated circuit. It being possible for the integrated circuit to be put optionally into one of a plurality of different operating modes by virtue of the selective provision of electrical connections between specific contact points constructed on the integrated circuit. The device described is distinguished by the fact that all the contact points of the integrated circuit which are provided for the operation and configuration of the integrated circuit are connected to terminal elements of the housing with which external contact can be made.
