Along a similar line, I am interested in others experience with using
on-chip ring-oscillators to gather characterization data.  Local experiences
suggest these are not very easy to use and perhaps useless.  Does anyone
have data on successes?  We are designing with CMOS .8 - 1 micron gate
arrays and standard cell technologies.
