Abstract
In this paper, a novel field-programmable analog array (FPAA) is proposed to secure the intellectual property (IP) of analog and mixed-signal circuits. A obfuscation technique is developed to efficiently mask the topology of both differential mode and single-ended mode analog circuits.
Claims20
A field programmable analog array (FPAA) comprising at least one configurable analog block (CAB) that is fully programmable with no prior functionality before programming, wherein the CABs comprise connected rows in a matrix architecture connected through a fixed interconnect.
