Zusammenfassung:A method and an apparatus to detect over clocking of a processor are illustrated. The over clocking detector may detect as to whether the system clock of a microprocessor is over clocked and then generate an over clocking indicator. The over clocking indicator may be stored and accessed at a later time. The over clocking indicator may be retrieved through a test access port.
