Abstract

Data retrieved from a portion of a device is obtained at a transmission buffer through an input/output (IO) cell of the device. The data is provided from the transmission buffer to a receiving buffer through the IO cell. The data is obtained from the receiving buffer. Responsive to a detection of a first mismatch between the data retrieved from the portion of the device and the data obtained from the receiving buffer, a fault is determined to have occurred at one or more of the transmission buffer or the receiving buffer.
