Abstract

A strong and weak hybrid PUF circuit comprises N switch units and an arbiter. Each switch unit consists of two delay modules and two 2:1 multiplexers. The N switch units constitute two completely symmetrical delay paths. Each delay module consists of six stages of delay cells. During the operating process, a transmission signal selects a turn-on path of the corresponding 2:1 multiplexers according to activation signals; the switch units in the PUF circuit are in a valid state (if the delay modules are turned on) or in an invalid state (if the delay modules are not turned on) according to whether the delay modules are turned during the operating process; and the strong and weak hybrid PUF circuit can be flexibly configured to be of two different types (a strong PUF circuit and a weak PUF circuit) according to changes of the Hamming weight of input activation signals.
