1. A wireless device comprising:
an antenna configured to at least receive a radio-frequency signal; and
a receive module configured receive and process the radio-frequency signal, the receive module having a semiconductor die that includes an integrated circuit, the receive module further including a fuse circuit including a fuse pad configured to receive a voltage, and a fuse having a first end coupled to the fuse pad and a second end coupled to a fuse state sensing circuit configured to apply a sense current to the second end of the fuse such that the sense current flows through the fuse to the fuse pad.
