    Abstract: A method includes applying a current to an input pin of an integrated circuit; converting an analog signal at the input pin to a digital stream using a Sigma-Delta modulator; converting the digital stream to a first digital output signal proportional to the analog signal in a first input range between a first analog signal value and a second analog signal value, where the first input range corresponds to a pre-determined range of the analog signal smaller than a full-scale input range of the analog signal; converting the digital stream to a second output signal; comparing the second output signal to a first threshold corresponding to a third analog signal value at the input pin that is outside of the first input range; and providing an indication of an open circuit condition at the input pin when the second output signal crosses the first threshold.
