Abstract
Clock generators include phase-locked and delay-locked loop integrated circuits that support efficient high speed testing of clock frequencies. An integrated circuit device is provided with a clock signal generator having at least one delay element therein that is responsive to a control signal. A speed tracking circuit is also provided. This speed tracking circuit is configured to generate a signal having a measurable characteristic that tracks changes in a property of the control signal that influences a delay of the at least one delay element.
