Abstract: | In this paper, we analyze ring oscillator (RO) based physical unclonable function (PUF) on FPGAs. We show that the systematic
process variation adversely affects the ability of the RO-PUF to generate unique chip-signatures, and propose a compensation
method to mitigate it. Moreover, a configurable ring oscillator (CRO) technique is proposed to reduce noise in PUF responses.
Our compensation method could improve the uniqueness of the PUF by an amount as high as 18%. The CRO technique could produce
nearly 100% error-free PUF outputs over varying environmental conditions without post-processing while consuming minimum area. |
