A device includes a scan chain including a plurality of storage elements and an output buffer; a shadow shift register having a shadow shift input coupled to a scan output of one of the storage elements of the scan chain; a signature register; and a comparator having a first input, a second input, and an output. The comparator first input is to receive a value of the shadow shift register, and the comparator second input is to receive a value of the signature register. The output buffer has a control input coupled to the comparator output, and the output buffer provides a high-impedance output responsive to the value of the shadow shift register being unequal to the value of the signature register.
