    Abstract: A monitoring system for monitoring delay of critical path timing margins can include a plurality of adaptive monitoring circuits, where each adaptive monitoring circuit is coupled to a corresponding one of a plurality of paths in a circuit. Each adaptive monitoring circuit can include a first delay element designed to cause a mean timing margin of the plurality of N paths in the circuit to be within one minimum mean unit delay; a second delay element coupled to the first delay element and designed to add a mean delay of k* σmax; a set-up capture element capturing an output of the second delay element; and a set-up warning comparison element that outputs a set-up warning signal when the output of the set-up capture element and a shadow capture element or a capture element of the corresponding one of the plurality of paths do not satisfy an expected condition.

    Abstract: In certain aspects, a delay circuit includes a multiplexer, a first delay path coupled between an input of the delay circuit and a first input of the multiplexer, and a second delay path coupled between the input of the delay circuit and a second input of the multiplexer. The first delay path includes a first delay device, and the second delay path includes a first inverter, a second delay device, and a second inverter. In other aspects, a delay circuit includes a latch including a first input, a second input, and an output. The first input of the latch is coupled to an input of the delay circuit. The delay circuit also includes a delay path coupled between the input of the delay circuit and the second input of the latch, wherein the delay path includes a pulse generator and a delay device.
