Method for supporting binding of chips to electronic device such as microcontroller, involves creating unique chip-specific parameter in chip, reading the parameter and sending characteristics size of chip, to electronic device

摘要

The method involves creating a unique chip-specific parameter in a chip (10), reading the chip-specific parameter within of the chip and sending the characteristics size of the chip, to an electronic device (50). The individual chip characteristic size is generated using the physical unclonable functions or by using non-volatile memory values. The individual chip characteristic size is programmed in programmable elements (30) of the chip by the data received from the chip. Independent claims are included for the following: (1) chip; and (2) electronic device.
