Provides Affordable Elliptic-Curve Public-Key Authentication Security to Protect Your Development Investment
Introduction
The DS28C36 (Figure 1) is a ECDSA (elliptic curve digital signature algorithm) and SHA-256 (secure hash algorithm, 256 bit) authenticator, which is operated over I2C interface. The three ECDSA private and public key pairs for signature generation and verification can be computed by the device or installed by the user and optionally locked. Separate memory space may be used to store and lock a public-key certificate. The 8kb of secured EEPROM provides a 4kb user partition that is organized as 16 pages of 256 bits and can be left unprotected or irreversibly write-protected, read-protected, authentication-protected, encrypted, or set up for EEPROM emulation mode. The DS28C36 also features a FIPS-grade TRNG (true random number generator), and a one-time settable, non volatile, 17-bit decrement-only counter, which can be used to electronically control the lifetime of the object with which the DS28C36 is associated. Each device has its own guaranteed unique 64-bit ROM ID, factory programmed into the chip. This ROM ID is an input parameter for cryptographic operations.

Protect your design using Crypto-Strong Authentication Secured with a Physically Unclonable Function
Introduction
The DS28E38 (Figure 1) is an ECDSA public-key based secure authenticator that incorporates Analog's patented ChipDNA™ feature, a physically unclonable function (PUF) to provide a cost-effective solution with the ultimate protection against security attacks. The DS28E38 security guide describes the command sequences to use ChipDNA with the cryptographically secure device data, and to operate the ECDSA engine, the decrement-only counter, and the unique 64-bit ROM identification number (ROM ID). After a 1-Wire® Reset/Presence cycle and ROM function command sequence is successful, a DS28E38 is ready to accept the device function command sequence. Common to all device function commands is a command start issued first followed by a length byte, the device function command, and the parameter byte(s). The controller receives a 16-bit CRC as confirmation of the device function command sequence to verify that it was received properly. Then the release byte can be issued followed by a delay with strong pullup (i.e., a low impedance bypass to supply high current demands during command processing). When the delay is complete, the controller transmits a dummy byte and receives the length byte and result byte from DS28E38. Depending on the length byte received, subsequent result data may or may not be sent after the result byte. Finally, the controller receives another 16-bit CRC as confirmation of the data DS28E38 sent after the dummy byte.
