    Abstract: A device includes a substrate, an array of metal pads on a first surface of the substrate, a carbon polymer composite covering the array of metal pads, the composite having variations that result in random resistance values between the metal pads usable as a random code. A method of manufacturing a secure device, including forming an array of metal pads on a dielet substrate, the dielet substrate containing at least one memory in which is stored an encryption key, and an RF communication section, covering the array of metal pads with a carbon polymer composite such that variations in the carbon concentration in the polymer forms a unique pattern of resistance, attaching the dielet substrate to a host component, receiving a request from a security server for a unique code determined by the unique pattern of resistance, and using the encryption key, encrypting and providing the unique code to the security server.

    Abstract: Manufacturing integrated circuits is discussed with steps as follows. Creating a wafer with a plurality of dies, where each die contains its own integrated circuit. Fabricating multiple instances of TAP circuitry located in a margin between dies of the wafer. Fabricating on the wafer one row of test pads and power pads per group of dies on the wafer, where the row of test pads and power pads is electrically connected and shared among all of the dies in the group. The test and power pads connect to a chain of TAP circuitry in order to supply operating power as well as testing data to verify the integrity of each die in that group of dies. Singulating the dies to create each instance of the integrated circuit, and during the singulation process, the TAP circuitry located in the margin between the dies is destroyed.
