Abstract:
A semiconductor device includes a first fin-type pattern and a second fin-type pattern which protrude upwardly from an upper surface of a field insulating film and extend in a first direction. A gate structure intersects the first fin-type pattern and the second fin-type pattern. A first epitaxial layer is on the first fin-type pattern on at least one side of the gate structure, and a second epitaxial layer is on the second fin-type pattern on at least one side of the gate structure. A metal contact covers outer circumferential surfaces of the first epitaxial layer and the second epitaxial layer. The first epitaxial layer contacts the second epitaxial layer.

A modular multiplier and a modular multiplication method are provided. The modular multiplier includes: a first register which stores a previous accumulation value calculated at a previous cycle; a second register which stores a previous quotient calculated at the previous cycle; a quotient generator which generates a quotient using the stored previous accumulation value output from the first register; and an accumulator which receives an operand, a bit value of a multiplier, the stored previous accumulation value, and the stored previous quotient to calculate an accumulation value in a current cycle, wherein the calculated accumulation value is updated to the first register, and the generated quotient is updated to the second register.
Abstract:
A multiplication method and a modular multiplier are provided. The multiplication method includes transforming a redundant-form multiplier by adding a recoding constant to the multiplier, performing recoding by using the transformed multiplier, and performing partial multiplication between the multiplier and a multiplicand using result values of the recoding.
Abstract:
An authentication apparatus, included in a device supporting a network communication, includes a certificate handler that receives a certificate of an opponent and parses or verifies the certificate of the opponent. Cryptographic primitives receive an authentication request of the opponent, generate a random number in response to the authentication request, generate a challenge corresponding to the random number, and verify a response of the opponent corresponding to the challenge. A shared memory stores the parsed certificate, the random number, the challenge, and the response. An authentication controller controls the certificate handler, the cryptographic primitives, and the shared memory through a register setting, according to an authentication protocol.

Abstract:
An electronic multiplier, such as a multiplication circuit, may include a partial product generator, a Booth code encoder and an accumulator. The partial product generator may generate partial product data based on a Booth code and multiplicand data. The Booth code encoder may generate the Booth code based on multiplier data. The Booth code may include a zero-generation Booth code and a zero-avoidance Booth code. The Booth code encoder may selectively generate the zero-generation Booth code or the zero-avoidance Booth code when the partial product data correspond to a partial product of zero. The accumulator accumulates the partial product data to provide a multiplication result of the multiplicand data and the multiplier data.
Abstract:
An application processor includes a security processor. An operating method of the security processor includes generating a recoder input including a digit-unit multiplier and a reference bit. At least one random bits having a random value are generated. When the recoder input has a predetermined pattern, the recoder input is converted into a first recoding value or a second recoding value according to a random bit corresponding to the recoder input to generate a recoding result.

Abstract:
A modular arithmetic unit includes a first input generator receiving first data to generate a first operand; a second input generator receiving second data to generate a second operand; an accumulator performing an accumulate/shift operation to add the first and second operands and outputting the carry and sum; a carry propagation adder adding the carry and the sum to output a result; and a data handler receiving either external data or the result and outputting the first data and the second data.
Abstract:
A method of testing using a memory test apparatus connected to a memory device includes receiving a test command. When the test command is a finite state machine (FSM) operation command, the memory device is tested in accordance with the FSM operation command, and an operation is performed to output a result depending on a pass/fail result. But, when the test command is a direct access command, an auto-operation test of input data is performed in a test region according to received address information, and a test result is output, which may include output data with fail information or the auto-operation.
