Abstract

See full text

A circuit and method for determining operating speed of a clock associated with an integrated circuit (IC), includes an IC logic element, a scan chain, and a calibration circuit including a first plurality of flip-flops and a combinational delay line. The calibration circuit operates in a functional test mode and in a scan test mode to determine a clock signal delay between the functional test mode and the scan test mode.
