Abstract
A method and a device are described for testing a frequency-modulated clock generator, the device including a cycle counting unit for counting clock cycles of a clock signal of the clock generator in multiple consecutive measuring periods, which are defined, in particular, by a measuring signal having a measuring frequency, and for outputting cycle count values, and including a comparator device for receiving and comparing the cycle count values with each other and for outputting at least one output signal as a function of the comparison. In particular, ascertained maximum and minimum values may be compared with each other.
