ABSTRACT:
An electronic circuit includes configurable cells each having a test input and an output. The configurable cells are connected to one another in a chain in a predefined order via their test input and their output to form a test register based on receiving a chaining command signal. The electronic circuit also includes a detection circuit activated by the chaining command signal to produce a state signal representing a state of initialization of a first set of configurable cells A multiplexing circuit selectively connects the test input of each configurable cell to a second set of the configurable cells either to the output of a preceding configurable cell or to an output of a decoy data generator based on the state signal.
