US Patent:
8630112, Jan 14, 2014
Filed:
Oct 26, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/281507
Inventors:
Bertrand Cambou - Palo Alto CA, US
Assignee:
Crocus Technology SA - Grenoble Cedex
International Classification:
G11C 11/00
US Classification:
365158, 365148, 365171, 365172, 977933, 977935
Abstract:
The present disclosure concerns a multilevel magnetic element comprising a first tunnel barrier layer between a soft ferromagnetic layer having a magnetization that can be freely aligned and a first hard ferromagnetic layer having a magnetization that is fixed at a first high temperature threshold and freely alignable at a first low temperature threshold. The magnetic element further comprises a second tunnel barrier layer and a second hard ferromagnetic layer having a magnetization that is fixed at a second high temperature threshold and freely alignable at a first low temperature threshold; the soft ferromagnetic layer being comprised between the first and second tunnel barrier layers. The magnetic element disclosed herein allows for writing four distinct levels using only a single current line.

Stress Management In Bga Packaging

View page
US Patent:
20080142956, Jun 19, 2008
Filed:
Dec 19, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/641506
Inventors:
Bertrand F. Cambou - Palo Alto CA, US
Lam Tim Fai - Suzhou, CN
International Classification:
H01L 23/34
US Classification:
257723
Abstract:
The present semiconductor structure includes a substrate having a planar surface, a semiconductor chip attached to the planar surface of the substrate, the chip preferably being of the same thickness as or thinner than the substrate, and a package body attached to the substrate and to the semiconductor chip. The semiconductor chip and substrate are sufficiently rigidly attached so that substantial force applied parallel to the planar surface of the substrate may be transmitted therebetween, reducing temperature-change stress on solder balls which connect the substrate with a PCB. The semiconductor chip with advantage is thinned to reduce the stress on the solder balls.

Apparatus, System, And Method For Matching Patterns With An Ultra Fast Check Engine Based On Flash Cells

View page
US Patent:
20120143554, Jun 7, 2012
Filed:
Dec 1, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/309475
Inventors:
Bertrand F. Cambou - Palo Alto CA, US
Neal Berger - Cupertino CA, US
Mourad El Baraji - Sunnyvale CA, US
Assignee:
CROCUS TECHNOLOGY, INC. - Sunnyvale CA
International Classification:
G06F 19/00
US Classification:
702113
Abstract:
A check engine includes a plurality of comparators, each including a plurality of flash cells, where each of the plurality of comparators is configured to store at least one reference bit included in a set of reference bits, and includes an input for presenting at least one target bit included in a set of target bits. Each of the plurality of comparators is configured to produce an output representing a level of matching between the at least one target bit and the at least one reference bit. The check engine is configured such that the outputs of the plurality of comparators are combined to produce a combined output. The check engine is configured to determine that the set of target bits matches the set of reference bits based on the combined output of the plurality of comparators.

US Patent:
20120143889, Jun 7, 2012
Filed:
Dec 1, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/309369
Inventors:
Bertrand F. Cambou - Palo Alto CA, US
Neal Berger - Cupertino CA, US
Mourad El Baraji - Fremont CA, US
Assignee:
CROCUS TECHNOLOGY, INC. - Sunnyvale CA
International Classification:
G06F 17/30
US Classification:
707758, 707E17009
Abstract:
A check engine includes a plurality of comparators each including a first directional characteristic aligned to store at least one reference bit included in a set of reference bits, and a second directional characteristic aligned to present at least one target bit included in a set of target bits. Each of the plurality of comparators is configured to produce an output representing a level of matching between the at least one target bit and the at least one reference bit, based on a relative alignment between the first directional characteristic and the second directional characteristic. The check engine is configured such that the outputs of the plurality of comparators are combined to produce a combined output. The check engine is configured to determine that the set of target bits matches the set of reference bits based on the combined output of the plurality of comparators.

Magnetic Random Access Memory Cell With A Dual Junction For Ternary Content Addressable Memory Applications

View page
US Patent:
20120250391, Oct 4, 2012
Filed:
Mar 27, 2012
Appl. No.:
13/430963
Inventors:
Bertrand Cambou - Palo Alto CA, US
Assignee:
CROCUS TECHNOLOGY SA - Grenoble
International Classification:
G11C 11/22
US Classification:
365145
Abstract:
The present disclosure concerns a MRAM cell comprising a first tunnel barrier layer comprised between a soft ferromagnetic layer having a free magnetization and a first hard ferromagnetic layer having a first storage magnetization; a second tunnel barrier layer comprised between the soft ferromagnetic layer and a second hard ferromagnetic layer having a second storage magnetization; the first storage magnetization being freely orientable at a first high predetermined temperature threshold and the second storage magnetization being freely orientable at a second predetermined high temperature threshold; the first high predetermined temperature threshold being higher than the second predetermined high temperature threshold. The MRAM cell can be used as a ternary content addressable memory (TCAM) and store up to three distinct state levels. The MRAM cell has a reduced size and can be made at low cost.

Salted Hashing Method For Response-Based Cryptography

View page
US Patent:
20230038135, Feb 9, 2023
Filed:
Jul 22, 2022
Appl. No.:
17/871850
Inventors:
- Flagstaff AZ, US
Bertrand F. Cambou - Flagstaff AZ, US
Kaitlyn Lee - Flagstaff AZ, US
Christopher R. Philabaum - Flagstaff AZ, US
International Classification:
H04L 9/32
H04L 9/08
H04L 9/06
Abstract:
Systems and methods for cryptographic key generation at a client and server are disclosed. The client has an array of PUF devices, and the server has an image that PUF. The server sends the client addresses of PUF devices to be measured, and retrieves previously stored responses corresponding to those addresses from its database. The client measures responses at the addresses. Each device hashes the resulting responses, and the server compares the hash received from the client to its own. If the hashes to not match, the server searches for a matching hash be perturbing the measured response bit stream until a match is achieved. The perturbed response bitstream, and the measured response at the client are then salted, and used for key generation.

Fast Cryptographic Key Generation From Memristor-Based Physical Unclonable Computed Functions

View page
US Patent:
20210314176, Oct 7, 2021
Filed:
Apr 2, 2021
Appl. No.:
17/221180
Inventors:
- Flagstaff AZ, US
Bertrand F. Cambou - Flagstaff AZ, US
International Classification:
H04L 9/32
G06F 11/10
Abstract:
Systems and methods for symmetric encryption between a client and a server device include a client device having an array of physical unclonable function devices and a server device storing information sufficient to reconstruct responses of the devices to an applied stimulus such as varying levels of electrical current. The server shares a challenge with the client, which measures characteristics such as electrical resistances for a subset of the devices according to instructions extracted from the challenge. The client measures a corresponding reference device in the array for each device of the subset and assigns a value determined based on a comparison of each device with the corresponding reference device to generate a cryptographic key. The server calculates an expected response of the client to the challenge according to a model of the devices in the array, and uses the calculated response to generate the key independently.
