Abstract
Provided is a method for generating a device-specific identifier in a device which contains at least one programmable circuit component and the circuit of which consists of individual components that are configured by loading a bitstream, having the following method steps: displaying the reference identifier as a bit sequence and assigning each bit of the reference identifier to a respective different component of the circuit component; generating a reference bitstream for a reference circuit of the circuit component, the bitstream containing at least the specified component of the reference identifier; and entering the device specific identifier as a binary sequence by overwriting the bits of the corresponding components of the reference identifier directly in the reference bitstream.
