These bits may be applied as identifications, random number seeds or encryption keys in many security applications, e.g., a financial terminal. An integrator is coupled to a plurality of physical elements, selects two physical elements or element sets, and generates an integrated difference signal according to a difference between these two physical elements or element sets. A comparison-decision logic further determines whether the difference between the selected two physical elements is associated with a bit of “1” or “0”. In some embodiments, a multi-bit number constitutes multiple bits each of which may be derived from a difference between two randomly selected physical elements or element sets. | 04-03-2014 |
20140369495 | Secure modules using unique identification elements - Various embodiments of the invention relate to secure systems and modules, and more particularly, to systems, devices and methods of generating and applying identification elements uniquely associated with modules or elements. These unique identification elements provide an improved, statistically random source from which keys may be derived. The application of these keys across various architectures result in an improvement in the security of data communicated within a system. | 12-18-2014 |
20150117495 | Systems and methods for on-chip temperature sensor - Various embodiments of the invention use the characteristics of BJTs to compute parameter values required to de-embed the effects of non-idealities including BJT's-mismatch in the reverse saturation current and process-dependent injection factor. In some embodiments, a temperature sensor circuit and method provide high temperature accuracy in a low-cost way by individually calibrating each part, thereby, eliminating the need to accurately measure temperature with a precision temperature sensor. | 04-30-2015 |

20100196326 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR BIASING CELLULAR DEVELOPMENT - Compositions and methods comprising siRNA targeted to APP mRNA are advantageously used to transfect stem cells and bias the cells against differentiating into glial type neural cells. The siRNA of the invention causes RNAi-mediated silencing of the APP mRNA. The inventors have discovered that expression APP induces gliogenesis, i.e., promotes differentiation of potent cells into glial cells. The transfection of potent cells with the subject siRNA silences APP mRNA and thus increases probability of the cells to differentiate into non-glial neural cells. | 08-05-2010 |
