Abstract

See full text

A Physical Unclonable Function (PUF) semiconductor device includes a semiconductor substrate, and a well formed in the semiconductor substrate. The well includes a first region having a first concentration of ions, and at least one second region having a second concentration that is less than the first concentration. First and second FETs are formed on the well. The first and second FETs have a voltage threshold mismatch with respect to one another based on the first region and the at least one second region.
