ABSTRACT:
An on-chip self-test circuit has been provided that allows for accurately testing a device such as prescaler at high frequencies. The on-chip self-test circuit includes a voltage controlled oscillator for providing high frequency signals to the device under test.
The on-chip self-test circuit is rendered active only when one desires to test the device. Thus, when not testing, the on-chip self-test circuit is transparent to the device and consumes substantially zero power.
