摘要:
A device for generating a pseudorandom sequence of numbers includes a feedforward coupler, which has a plurality of memory units, and a feedback coupler connected between an input and an output of the feedforward coupler. The feedback coupler includes a changeable feedback characteristic and is embodied to change the feedback characteristic depending on a state of a memory unit of the plurality of memory units of the feedforward coupler.

A device for protecting a data word against data corruption includes first and second determiners. The first determiner is configured to determine an error correction code cvA associated with a data word a so that cvA=aAT, with A being a generator matrix of a linear systematic base correction code, the columns of which enable performance of an x-bit error correction on replica of the data word a and the associated error correction code cvA. The second determiner is configured to determine an extended error correction code cvE so that (cvA|cvE)=aFT, with F being an extended generator matrix F = ( A E ) of an extended linear systematic correction code, the columns of which enable, using the extension error correction code cvE, performance of an y-bit error correction, with y>x, on a replica of the data word a and the associated error correction code cvA.

摘要:
An encryption part or a decryption part of an encryption/decryption apparatus or a part common to both parts is used both for encryption and decryption of a datum to be stored and the encrypted memory content and for the generation of the address-individual key and the address-dependent key, respectively.

Feedback shift register control circuit including a checking circuit having an input being coupled to a seed input of a feedback shift register or to an internal node of the feedback shift register, the checking circuit configured to be responsive to a signal at the input indicating that the feedback shift register is in a not-allowed state, or is going to assume a not-allowed state to output an exception signal; and a gate circuit being coupled to the seed input or the feedback shift register and configured to be responsive to the exception signal to change the state of the feedback shift register or seed the feedback shift register such that the feedback shift register assumes an allowed state.

摘要:
Applying both an encryption and also a decryption algorithm, which is inverse to the encryption algorithm, as an encryption definition to thereby enable the use of an encryption unit and a decryption unit of an encryption/decryption device simultaneously, i.e. temporally overlapping, in an encryption process when a part of the data to be encrypted is supplied to the encryption unit while the other part is supplied to the decryption unit. The result is encrypted data or is a cipher text, respectively, whose parts are only “encrypted” in a different way. During decryption, it only has to be guaranteed by suitable regulations that those parts which were encrypted by the encrypted unit are again decrypted by the decryption unit, while the other parts which were “encrypted” by the decryption unit are “decrypted” by the encryption unit.
