Claim 34:
35. The method of claim 34, wherein the first and second instances are included in a functional agile ring oscillator (ARO), wherein the first instance is associated with a first voltage scaling characteristic, wherein the second instance is associated with a second voltage scaling characteristic, wherein the functional ARO is replicated in a first shadow ARO and in a second shadow ARO, and wherein the method further includes:
sourcing the output clock to at least one other circuit by the functional ARO;
disabling the first instance associated with the first voltage scaling characteristic and replicated in the first shadow ARO; and
disabling the second instance associated with the second voltage scaling characteristic and replicated in the second shadow ARO.
