Abstract:
A first element and a second element of a same device communicate with each other. The first element sends the second element a first piece of information representative of energy supplied by an electromagnetic field supplying power the device. The second element adapts its operating frequency as a function of the first piece of information.
Abstract:
A device for detecting a laser attack made on an integrated circuit chip comprises a bipolar transistor of a first type formed in a semiconductor substrate, that bipolar transistor comprising a parasitic bipolar transistor of a second type. A buried region, forming the base of the parasitic bipolar transistor, operates as a detector of the variations in current flowing caused by impingement of laser light on the substrate.

Abstract:
A device for detecting a laser attack in an integrated circuit chip formed in the upper P-type portion of a semiconductor substrate incorporating an NPN bipolar transistor having an N-type buried layer, including a detector of the variations of the current flowing between the base of said NPN bipolar transistor and the substrate.
