ELECTRONIC COMPONENT CLASSIFICATION

摘要

A system and method of electronic component authentication or component classification can reduce the vulnerability of systems (e.g., satellites, weapons, critical infrastructure, aerospace, automotive, medical systems) to counterfeits. Intrinsic deterministically random property data can be obtained from a set of authentic electronic components, processed, and clustered to create a classifier that can distinguish whether an unknown electronic component is authentic or counterfeit.

主权项

1. A method of detecting a counterfeit electronic component comprising:
temporarily installing a plurality of known electronic components from one or more trusted sources into a component interface of an electronic component authentication system for signal measurement; measuring, during an idle state, an intrinsic deterministically random noise signal for each of the plurality of known electronic components via the component interface; building a classifier based on the intrinsic deterministically random noise signals of the plurality of known electronic components; non-destructively classifying an unknown electronic component from an untrusted source using the classifier.
