Abstract

A method of operation for a side-channel leakage engine includes initializing a plurality of copy registers with a respective initial value. A respective copied value is copied from a leakage value circuit to at least one of the copy registers, wherein the leakage value circuit comprises a data register comprising a leakage value and each of the copy registers comprises a respective plurality of bits comprising a same number of bits as the data register. An observable characteristic of the side-channel leakage engine is generated, wherein the observable characteristic is proportional to a number of bit transitions of the respective plurality of bits of each of the copy registers, transitioning from the respective initial value to the respective copied value.
