Abstract

This paper discusses commonly used reverse engineering methods to illegally recreate printed circuit board (PCB) designs. A solution using transformative electronics is presented to prevent the discussed reverse engineering methods by obfuscating the design. The transformative electronics solution is employed in a specific application that results in a reverse engineered board to be incorrectly recreated, where the signals would be distorted due to added electromagnetic interference (EMI). The non-conductive vias that are part of the obfuscation would allow the inclusion of EMI generators that would not affect the circuit in an original design but would prevent copied designs from working correctly. A machine learning algorithm is being designed to optimize the placement of the EMI sources in an original PCB.
利用电磁干扰引起的混淆进行逆向工程保护
本文讨论了非法重新创建印刷电路板(PCB)设计的常用逆向工程方法。提出了一种使用变革性电子技术的解决方案,通过混淆设计来防止所讨论的逆向工程方法。变革性电子解决方案用于特定应用,导致反向工程板被错误地重新创建,其中信号会因增加的电磁干扰(EMI)而失真。作为混淆的一部分的非导电过孔将允许包含EMI发生器,该发生器不会影响原始设计中的电路,但会阻止复制的设计正确工作。正在设计一种机器学习算法来优化EMI源在原始PCB中的位置。

期刊介绍: Launched in 1990, the International Journal of High Speed Electronics and Systems (IJHSES) has served graduate students and those in R&D, managerial and marketing positions by giving state-of-the-art data, and the latest research trends. Its main charter is to promote engineering education by advancing interdisciplinary science between electronics and systems and to explore high speed technology in photonics and electronics. IJHSES, a quarterly journal, continues to feature a broad coverage of topics relating to high speed or high performance devices, circuits and systems.
