  • Publication number: 20240143743
    Abstract: A method and system for analysis of a facility may include providing an emulation host system, first generating a golden circuit model on the emulation host system, first inserting a first hardware trojan model, first emulating operation of the golden circuit model, and second emulating operation of the first hardware trojan model. A facility may include a trojan instrument facility having a trojan detection instrument comparing logic circuit output against a threshold for detecting hardware trojan activity, and outputting alert data, and in relation to opening one of a plurality of scannable access points, a scannable register is inserted into an active scan chain with an associated instrument interface.

  • Publication number: 20120038509
    Abstract: A module for receiving a plurality of signals that are modulated with a common carrier, where each of the signals includes information that enables a determination of a distance from said receiver to a source that transmits the signal, and outputs to outside the module a digital representation of a downshifted replica of the received signals or, alternatively, outputs a stored and delayed version of the downshifted replica of the received signals together with information about the delay.

  • Publication number: 20100283671
    Abstract: A receiver that receives a plurality of signals that are modulated with a common carrier, where each signal of said signals originates at a different source and experiences a transit delay and Doppler frequency shift before reaching the receiver, and where the transit delay and Doppler frequency shift are related to position and movement of each of the respective sources. The receiver includes means, such as a directional antenna, to ensure that the received signals are bona fide, or at least not subject to the same bogus signal or signals to which a second receiver may be subjected.

  • Publication number: 20100241864
    Abstract: Exemplary embodiments provide methods and systems of authenticating an integrated circuit (IC). The manufacturing location of an IC is authenticated by storing in the IC a local signature derived from a GPS signal that was received at the manufacturing location at the time of manufacture. A remote signature is derived from a GPS signal that was received at a remote site nearly simultaneously as the reception of the GPS signal at the manufacturing location. The local signature is compared to the remote signature at an authentication site to determine the authenticity of the IC.

  • Patent number: 7348796
    Abstract: A method and system is provided for Network-on-Chip (NoC) and other integrated circuit architectures. A configurable fabric circuit (CFC) is interfaced with one or more core circuits and the CFC is responsive to an input signal and capable of reconfiguring the logic circuit in the CFC in accordance with an operational mode determined based on the received input signal to facilitate a core circuit interfaced therewith to carry out an operation consistent with the operational mode.
