Zusammenfassung:Embodiments of the present invention include an apparatus including a debug interface, a counter, and debug-enabling circuitry. The debug-enabling circuitry is configured to receive a debug-enabling input, and responsively to the debug-enabling input, enable the debug interface and start the counter. The counter is configured to output an output signal that causes the debug interface to become disabled, following a predetermined duration from a time at which the counter was started. Other embodiments are also described.
