Patent attributes
A test-device for testing an electric circuit comprises a data stream generator for generating a first data stream to be fed to an electric circuit which generates a second data stream in response to the first data stream and a comparison-device for comparing two data streams. The test-device comprises further a self-test device configured to generate a third data stream used to test the comparison-device. The test-device is further configured to operate in a first operation mode and in a second operation mode. The comparison-device is configured to compare the first data stream with the second data stream during the first operation mode and is configured to compare the first data stream with the third data stream during the second operation mode.
