    Abstract: The inventive concept provides a security device capable of reducing an area of a die required for implementation of a stable PUF by increasing the value of entropy from a predefined number of entropy sources and/or minimizing a blind zone of a validity checking module. The security device uses an asynchronous configuration to minimize a blind zone. In various embodiments of the inventive concept, the blind zone is generated only in a period when a reset signal is at a first logic level. Therefore, it is possible to minimize the blind zone by minimizing a period in which the reset signal is at such logic level. A semiconductor device, semiconductor package, and/or smart card can be provided with such security device, as well as a method for determining a validity of a random signal using a semiconductor security device.

    Abstract: A random number generator includes a first oscillator configured to output a first oscillating signal having a first frequency. A second oscillator is configured to output a second oscillating signal having a second frequency different from the first frequency. A sampling unit is configured to receive the first and second oscillating signals. The sampling unit is configured to generate at least one entropy source by combining the received first and second oscillating signals. The sampling unit is configured to generate a random bit corresponding to the generated entropy source using a third oscillating signal. A third oscillator & control unit is configured to control the first and second oscillators and to generate the third oscillating signal. A frequency of the third oscillating signal is lower than the first and second frequencies.

    Abstract: A processor-implemented data processing method includes: normalizing input data of an activation function comprising a division operation; determining dividend data corresponding to a dividend of the division operation by reading, from a memory, a value of a first lookup table addressed by the normalized input data; determining divisor data corresponding to a divisor of the division operation by accumulating the dividend data; and determining output data of the activation function corresponding to an output of the division operation obtained by reading, from the memory, a value of a second lookup table addressed by the dividend data and the divisor data.
