Abstract
Apparatuses, systems, and techniques to monitor a frequency of a clock signal sent to a device to prevent or limit undesired access to the device. In at least one embodiment, a frequency monitor circuit detects a selection signal sent to a device and monitors a frequency of a clock signal also sent to the device. In at least one embodiment, if the frequency of the clock signal exceeds a predetermined threshold, the frequency monitor circuit may assert a control signal to initiate an action to prevent or limit undesired access to the device.
