    Abstract: A semiconductor chip includes a semiconductor die formed on a substrate, a first power mesh formed on the substrate, and a second power mesh formed on the substrate electrically isolated from the first power mesh. The semiconductor chip also includes a first circuit block formed on the substrate and electrically connected to the first power mesh, and a second circuit block formed on the substrate and electrically connected to the second power mesh. The first circuit block and the second circuit block are communicatively coupled to a first plurality of external circuit connections and a second plurality of external circuit connections, respectively. The semiconductor chip also includes one or more first signal pins and one or more second signal pins formed on the substrate, the first and second signal pins designed to receive external signals.
