Abstract
An application specific integrated circuit includes a clock recovery circuit which recovers from an input signal a repetitive sequence of data values wherein no two consecutive values are the same and a recovered clock. An address generator responds to the recovered clock to cause storage of the data values in said memory in a set of locations having addresses generated by the address generator, so that the address generated by the generator increments in response to a repetitive transition in the recovered clock. The existence of a clock glitch is found by reading the data values from the set of locations to determine whether any two consecutive locations contain the same data value.
