A communication system including a first transceiver having a user identification; and a second transceiver having the same user identification as the first transceiver, wherein the first and second transceivers operate in tandem.

Multiple transceivers operable as a single transceiver

A device according to the present invention is configured for transmitting data between two semiconductor chips of a data processor in an encrypted manner, wherein a first semiconductor chip is connected to a second semiconductor chip. The device includes a non-volatile memory element in each of the two semiconductor chips, wherein an encryption initial value for an encryption rule is stored in the memory element of the first semiconductor chip and a decryption initial value associated to the encryption initial value for a decryption rule associated to the encryption rule is stored in the memory element of the second semiconductor chip. Additionally, the first semiconductor chip has a first data transmission interface formed to generate an encryption data stream from an input data stream using the encryption initial value according to the encryption rule. Also, the second semiconductor chip has a second data transmission interface formed to receive the encryption data stream and to generate a decryption data stream from the encryption data stream using the decryption initial value according to the decryption rule and to compare the decryption data stream generated to an expected data stream, wherein the second data transmission interface is also formed to perform a defensive measure against transmitting data from the second data transmission interface to the first data transmission interface when the decryption data stream does not correspond to the expected data stream.

A compiling device for generating a second program sequence from a first program sequence comprises a recognizer for recognizing a first subarea and a second subarea of the first program sequence, and a selector for selecting instructions from a set of instructions of the second program sequence formed to select only instructions of a first security category for mapping a functionality of the first subarea and to select instructions of the second security category for mapping a functionality of the second subarea. Additionally, the compiling device comprises a generator for generating the second program sequence from the instructions selected.

A memory arrangement including a memory array, which has at least one memory block with a power supply device which can be activated, an address decoder, which is coupled to the at least one memory block in order to control access to the at least one memory block, and an activation device for selectively activating the power supply device of memory blocks. The address decoder is set up to interact with the activation device in such a manner that, when a memory block is accessed for the first time, the power supply device of the memory block is activated and remains activated after the access operation has ended.

A current-supply circuit includes a regulation transistor. The regulation transistor is formed to regulate, based on a first supply voltage present on a first supply-voltage feed line, a second supply voltage present on a second supply-voltage feed line. The regulation transistor provides a supply current to the second supply-voltage feed line. The voltage-supply circuit further includes an operating-point determiner, which is formed to determine, based on information that is a measure for the supply current, whether the regulation transistor is at a low operating point at which the supply current is below a determined current. The voltage-supply circuit further includes a preventer that is formed to prevent, starting from the low operating point, a rise of the supply current by at least a predetermined current amount from occurring within a predetermined period.
