Assignee: NAGRAVISION SàRL
Field: Telecommunications (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC G  H | IPC G  H

Claim 16:
17. The hardware component of claim 16, wherein:
during step (a) the hardware component is configured to:
(a-i) generate, based on the random or pseudo-random value, an initial target value for the working condition; and
(a-ii) increment or decrement the working condition by a predetermined interval towards the initial target value, to generate the adjusted working condition;

in step (b), the logic test circuit is configured to measure a reaction of the hardware component to the adjusted working condition through processing data operations along the reference datapath; and
if no error is detected in step (c):
the hardware component is configured to adopt the adjusted working condition and repeat steps (a-ii), (b), and (c); and

if the error is detected in step (c), or if the initial target value of the working condition has been reached, the hardware component is configured to, at step (d):
repeat step (a-i) to generate a successive initial target value for the working condition, which is the modified working condition; and
repeat steps (a-ii), (b) and (c).
