Problems solved by technology

However, traditional methods suffer from some challenges
First of all, since the key is stored in non-volatile memory in digital form, it is vulnerable to invasive attacks (Invasive Attacks, IA)
Secondly, for a higher level of information security, the chip needs to use complex anti-tamper protection circuits

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a physical non-clonable function circuit, in particular to a physical non-clonable function circuit utilizing monostable timing deviation. Background technique [0002] With the popularity of electronic devices, people rely more and more on information security chips to perform security-sensitive tasks. For example, electronic tags are often used for identity authentication, financial transactions to control smart cards, etc. The key to the security chip being able to perform these operations is how to implement device identity authentication and protect private information in a highly secure channel. At present, the usual method is to store the key in non-volatile memory or use cryptography to protect private information. However, traditional methods suffer from some challenges. First of all, since the key is stored in the non-volatile memory in digital form, it is vulnerable to intrusive attacks (Invasive Attacks, IA). Se...
