Abstract:
A physical unclonable function (PUF) located on a supply item for an imaging device is disclosed. The PUF has a toothed rack configured to mate with a gear. During reading operations, the gear turns and translates the PUF linearly under a magnetic sensor. This configuration is inexpensive and robust. Other devices are disclosed.
