Application: Secure semiconductor and system design (Patent ID: US20240202375A1)
The patent filed by BAE Systems Plc describes a secure system that includes various components such as a data port, a network on chip (NoC) module, a processor, a communication interface, an electronic field-programmable gate array (eFPGA) configuration module, and a clock. The system operates in different modalities where the communication interface can be partially enabled or disabled, boundary scan operations can be disabled, a RESET signal can be held constant, and redacted code can be rendered inoperable. The system is designed to ensure secure communication access and operation based on the presence or absence of an access key and FPGA configuration data.
The secure semiconductor device described in the patent includes features such as a data port, a NoC module, a processor, a communication interface, an eFPGA configuration module, and a clock. The device is designed to generate an access key, enable or disable communication access based on the presence of the access key, and assert a RESET signal in response to the absence of FPGA configuration data. Additionally, the device can operate in different modalities to ensure secure communication and operation, with specific configurations related to boundary scan operations and redacted code. The inclusion of a JTAG interface, programmable logic blocks, and NVRAM further enhances the security features of the device.
