Abstract
A method is for generating a cryptographic key from an SRAM memory and device implements such a method. The method includes steps of biased initialisation of a first set of cells located in a first region of the SRAM memory so as to promote the establishment, in a first logic state, of the cells of the first set, storing, in a second set of cells of a second region of the memory, the respective states of the cells of the first set and resulting from the first biased initialisation, then, performing a second biased initialisation of the first set of cells so as to promote a setting in a second logic state, complementary to the first logic state, the cells of the first set. The method further includes, after the first biased initialisation and the second biased initialization, establishing an N-bit digital key.
