摘要:
An integrated circuit and method are provided for preventing reverse engineering by monitoring light emissions emitted from transistors and such electrically active devices in the integrated circuit. The method prevents, in an integrated circuit, a pattern of light emitted from at least one active device in the integrated circuit from being detected external to the integrated circuit by fading the light emitted from the at least one active device in the integrated circuit and that is emitted external to the integrated circuit. Bright light emission emitted in substantial close proximity to the at least one active device in the integrated circuit, and emitted external to the integrated circuit, fades a pattern of light emission emitted from the at least one active device.

The rotating X-ray apparatus disclosed has a pair of driven rotatable rings with an X-ray source mounted for impinging a beam that passes through a specimen to an X-ray receptor. A reversible motor, controlled by a reversing switch, drives the rotatable rings around the specimen. The rotatable rings are mounted between a pair of frame plates that are supported on transverse rails for lateral movement.
摘要:
An integrated circuit chip (IC) is equipped with a device for preventing reverse engineering by monitoring light emissions emitted from transistors and such electrically active devices in a circuit located in the IC. The device can be an opaque structure that blocks emissions from being detected external to the IC. Alternatively, the device can reduce light emissions from the transistors to prevent detection of the light emissions external to the IC. The device, in another alternative, can emit extraneous light emissions to hide a pattern of light emissions emitted from the transistors. As a further alternative, the device can add random delay to a signal driving the transistors to randomize the pattern of light emissions emitted from the transistors to prevent detection of a predetermined pattern of light emissions external to the IC.

An integrated circuit and method are provided for preventing reverse engineering by monitoring light emissions emitted from transistors and such electrically active devices in the integrated circuit. The method prevents, in an integrated circuit, a pattern of light emitted from at least one active device in the integrated circuit from being detected external to the integrated circuit by reduction of the intensity of light emitted from the at least one active device in the integrated circuit thereby preventing the reduced intensity light emitted from the at least one active device in the integrated circuit from being detected external to the integrated circuit. The intensity of light emitted from the at least one active device in the integrated circuit can be reduced by modification of operational characteristics of the at least one active device during switching transitions.
摘要:
A method for an electronic device is provided for preventing reverse engineering by monitoring light emissions emitted from transistors and such electrically active devices in the electronic device. The method emits extraneous randomized light emissions in substantial close proximity to the transistors to hide a pattern of light emissions emitted from the transistors. As one feature, the device can include a source of randomized light emissions in substantial close proximity to the transistors to hide a pattern of the emitted light from the transistors in randomized light emissions emitted by the source. As a second feature, the device can emit the randomized light emissions by randomly delaying an electrical signal that is electrically coupled to the transistors and, in response to the randomly delayed electrical signal, the transistors randomly emitting light emissions thereby hiding a separate pattern of light emission emitted from the transistors.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for reverse engineering an integrated circuit chip (IC chip) (120) utilizes an electrical circuit tester (114) for injecting a triggering signal into the IC chip (120) to exercise a circuit under test. In synchronization thereto, a PICA detector (116) monitors optical emissions from the circuit under test. A spatial data extractor, electrically coupled to the PICA detector, collects space information (124) from patterns of light emissions emitted by the circuit under test, and a timing data extractor, electrically coupled to the electrical circuit tester and to the PICA detector (116), collects time information (126) from the patterns of light emissions emitted by the circuit under test. A database memory (105) includes known data about the circuit under test and also includes at least one reference pattern for comparing a captured light emission pattern thereto to identify at least one circuit element in the circuit under test. A PICA data analyzer (108), electrically coupled to the database memory (105) and to the PICA detector (116), determines at least one of whether the circuit under test comprises a circuit element with a light emission pattern that matches one of the at least one reference pattern in the database memory (105), and the value contained in a memory in the IC chip (120).
