The detection of counterfeit integrated circuit by the use of electromagnetic fingerprint

This paper proposes a preliminary demonstration of an alternative method of detection of counterfeit integrated devices, based on the electromagnetic fingerprint obtained by electromagnetic emission measurements. The principles of the methodology are explained. Two case studies are presented and two data analysis methods are discussed.
