  • Tiered wakeup strategy
    Patent number: 9665762
    Abstract: A biometric authentication apparatus and method is disclosed which may comprise a biometric authentication unit which may comprise: a biometric object sensor comprising sensor elements and a sensor computing device; a wake-on-event logic controller maintaining the sensor computing device in one of a powered-off or powered down mode, and including a bulk biometric object detector configured to detect a biometric object on or in the vicinity of the sensor elements and to power-on or power-up the sensor computing device responsive to the detection of the biometric object on or in the vicinity of the sensor elements; the sensor computing device configured to analyze one or more lines of biometric object image comprising a partial biometric object image and determine if the partial biometric image belongs to a biometric object desired to be imaged to obtain a complete biometric object image, and to provide a power-on or power-up signal to a host electronic device computing device when the partial biometric image i

  • Configurable cryptographic processing engine and method
    Patent number: 6026490
    Abstract: A configurable cryptographic processing engine (100) provides high performance cryptographic processing support for symmetric combiner type cryptographic algorithms. As many as two independent cryptographic algorithms may be performed at the same time through the processes of background staging and algorithm multi-tasking. A 3-stage instruction pipeline, dynamically configurable cryptographic co-processor (550), and 32-bit RISC based architecture support high performance cryptographic processing performance on the order of 60 Mbps aggregate throughput.
