ABSTRACT:
A muldem (100) has a monitor (101) for testing data path failures through the muldem (100) by comparing the latter's input and output. The monitor (101) tests itself by injecting errors into one of the compared data streams for detection thereof if the monitor (101) and comparing means (806, FIG. 13a and b) is operating properly. Error injection is particularly accomplished by an error generator (922, FIG. 14) synchronously clocked with a data stream (904) through an exclusive OR gate (938). The error generator (922) includes a free running gated oscillator (924) and a pair of ganged flip-flops (926, 928) toggled by a clock signal (936) recovered from the data stream (904).
