  • Patent number: 8105874
    Abstract: A memory circuit arrangement and fabrication method thereof are presented in which the parts of the memory circuit arrangement are situated on two different substrates. An integrated memory cell array is situated on one substrate. An integrated control circuit that controls access to the memory cells is situated on the other (logic circuit) substrate. The control circuit controls sequences when reading, writing or erasing content of a memory cell. The logic circuit substrate also contains a CPU and encryption coprocessor. The memory circuit contains a sense amplifier, with the aid of which the memory state of a memory cell can be determined, and a decoding circuit that selects a word or bit line.

  • Patent number: 6690556
    Abstract: An integrated circuit with at least one antenna for the contactless transmission of data or energy. The antenna is configured above and/or below circuit sections to be protected and, as part of a protective circuit, enables the integrated circuit to be monitored with regard to an undesirable external attack. Such an attack can be identified by the attempt to effect observation or manipulation from the outside, which are typically associated with an alteration of the physical properties of the antenna. These physical alterations lead to significant changes in the protective circuit signals that are transmitted via the antenna. These changes are identified by signal detectors and initiate a transfer of the integrated circuit into a security mode. In this case, in addition to the function as means for transmitting data and/or energy, the antenna also serves the function of being a protective shield of a protective circuit for the integrated circuit.
