Abstract

Systems, devices, and methods for generating a unique fingerprint are described herein. For example, an example integrated circuit (IC) chip includes a physically unclonable function (PUF) and an auxiliary circuit. The PUF is a hybrid Boolean network. Additionally, the auxiliary circuit is configured to receive a transient response enable signal.
