摘要
Correction of delay-based metric measurements using delay circuits having differing metric sensitivities provides improved accuracy for environmental and other circuit metric measurements that used delay lines. A delay line measurement, which may be a one-shot measurement or a ring oscillator frequency measurement is performed either simultaneously or sequentially using at least two delay lines that have differing sensitivities to a particular metric under measurement. A correction circuit or algorithm uses the measured delays or ring oscillator frequencies and corrects at least one of the metric measurements determined from one of the delays or ring oscillator frequencies in conformity with the other delay or ring oscillator frequency. The delays may be inverter chains, with one chain having a higher sensitivity to supply voltage than the other delay chain, with the other delay chain having a higher sensitivity to temperature. Temperature results can then be corrected for supply voltage variation and vice-versa.
