Abstract: An integrated device for physically unclonable functions is based on a set of MOS transistors exhibiting a random distribution of threshold voltages which are obtained by lateral implantations of dopants exhibiting non-predictable characteristics, resulting from implantations through a polysilicon layer. A certain number of these transistors form a group of gauge transistors which makes it possible to define a mean gate source voltage making it possible to bias the gates of certain others of these transistors (which are used to define the various bits of the unique code generated by the function). All these transistors consequently exhibit a random distribution of drain-source currents and a comparison of each drain-source current of a transistor associated with a bit of the digital code with a reference current corresponding to the average of this distribution makes it possible to define the logical value 0 or 1 of this bit.

Abstract: An integrated physical unclonable function device includes at least one reference capacitor and a number of comparison capacitors. A capacitance determination circuit operates to determine a capacitance of the at least one reference capacitor and a capacitance of each comparison capacitor. The determined capacitances of the comparison capacitors are then compared to the determined capacitance of the reference capacitor by a comparison circuit. A digital word is then generated with bit values indicative of a result of the comparisons made by the comparison circuit.

Abstract: The present description concerns a ROM including at least one first rewritable memory cell. In an embodiment, a method of manufacturing a read-only memory (ROM) comprising a plurality of memory cells is proposed. Each of the plurality of memory cells includes a rewritable first transistor and a rewritable second transistor. An insulated gate of the rewritable first transistor is connected to an insulated gate of the rewritable second transistor. The method includes successively depositing, on a semiconductor structure, a first insulating layer and a first gate layer, wherein the first insulating layer is arranged between the semiconductor structure and the first gate layer, wherein the rewritable second transistor further includes a well-formed between an associated first insulating layer and the semiconductor structure, and wherein the rewritable first insulating layer is in direct contact with the semiconductor structure; and successively depositing a second insulating layer and a second gate layer.

Abstract: A method for fabricating a semiconductor chip includes forming a plurality of conducting pads at a front face of a substrate, thinning a rear face of the substrate, etching openings under each conducting pad from the rear face, depositing a layer of a dielectric on walls and a bottom of the openings, forming a conducting material in the openings, and forming a conducting strip on the rear face. The conducting strip is electrically connected to the conducting material of each of the openings. The etching is stopped when the respective conducting pad is reached.
