Abstract:
An indication of an operating mode of an asynchronous circuit may be received. A determination may be made as to whether the operating mode of the asynchronous circuit corresponds to a self-test of the asynchronous circuit. In response to determining that the operating mode of the asynchronous circuit corresponds to the self-test, a first clock signal may be provided to a first portion of a self-test component in a feedback path of the asynchronous circuit and a second clock signal may be provided to a second portion of the self-test component in the feedback path of the asynchronous circuit. Furthermore, a test value may be generated based on the first clock signal and the second clock signal.
