Voltage Glitch Sensor GlobalFoundries

Overview

The agileGLITCH voltage monitor provides security and protection against voltage side-channel attacks (SCA) and tampering such as supply voltage changes/glitches and power supply manipulation. The sensor provides digital outputs to warn (secure) processors of intrusion attempts, thus enabling a holistic approach to hardware security. As a key part of the agileSCA TVC (Temperature, Voltage, Clock) security sensor can be tuned to your specifications and is ideally suited for security and monitoring in applications such as in IoT, Security, Automotive, Medical, AI and general SoCs and ASICs.

Key Features

  • Minimum Glitch Detection: Typ <3ns1
  • Positive & Negative Voltage Glitch Detection
  • Programmable Glitch Threshold
