Cost Effective Secure Authenticator with Single pin 1-Wire Interface for Minimal Interconnect Requirement
Analog Devices, Inc. has introduced the DS28E30 1-Wire ECDSA Secure Authenticator which is a cost-effective solution to detect and help protect products from counterfeiting or misuse. Combining a fixed-function cryptographic toolbox based on the industry-standard FIPS 186 elliptic curve digital signature algorithm (ECDSA), secure storage of keys and application data, and the single-contact 1-Wire interface, the device easily integrates into existing or new designs with minimal complexity.
This device provides secure features to enable the use management of limited life tools, sensors, and other peripherals. These include a monotonic, non-resettable, decrement-only counter and 1Kbit of general-purpose EEPROM that can optionally be ECDSA protected to store application data including end-product life-cycle information.
