Abstract

Methods, machine readable media and systems for a method to determine if a model of an integrated circuit (IC) includes a Trojan component are described. In one embodiment, a method can include the following operations: splitting the model of the IC into a plurality of tiles; simulating the IC with an elevated temperature of each tile to predetermined level; computing a temperature-dependent leakage power for each tile; and identifying a tile of the IC as including a Trojan component based on the temperature-dependent leakage power computed.
