Abstract: An integrated circuit (IC) die comprises a sensor, which includes a pulse generator and a pulse expander. The pulse generator comprises gate circuits coupled to each other in an in-series arrangement. An input of the pulse generator is coupled to receive a voltage and the pulse generator is to generate a first signal based on the voltage. The pulse generator is to generate a first pulse of the first signal based on an event wherein radiation from a laser is incident upon the pulse generator. The pulse expander is coupled to receive the first signal from the pulse generator and to generate a second signal based on the first signal, wherein a second pulse of the second signal is based on the first pulse. A first duration of the first pulse is less than a second duration of the second pulse.

Abstract: A system architecture provides a hardware-based root of trust solution for supporting distribution and playback of premium digital content. In an embodiment, hardware root of trust for digital content and services is a solution where the basis of trust for security purposes is rooted in hardware and firmware mechanisms in a client computing system, rather than in software. From this root of trust, the client computing system constructs an entire media processing pipeline that is protected for content authorization and playback. In embodiments of the present invention, the security of the client computing system for content processing is not dependent on the operating system (OS), basic input/output system (BIOS), media player application, or other host software.
