Method and arrangement for ensuring valid data at a second stage of a digital register circuit
A digital value obtained from a preceding circuit element is temporarily stored and made available for a subsequent circuit element at a controlled moment of time. The digital value is received through a data input. A triggering signal is also received, a triggering edge of which defines an allowable time limit before which a digital value must be available at said data input to become available for said subsequent circuit element. Between first and second pulse-enabled subregister stages, an internal digital value from the first pulse-enabled subregister stage and information of the changing moment of said digital value at the data input in relation to said allowable time limit are used to ensure passing a valid internal digital value to the second pulse-enabled subregister stage. Said second pulse-enabled subregister stage makes said valid internal digital value available for said subsequent circuit element. A timing event observation signal is output as an indicator of said digital value at said data input having changed within a time window that begins at said allowable time limit and is shorter than one cycle of said triggering signal.

Synchronization circuit for threshold implementation of S-box
This application relates to a synchronization circuit for synchronizing signals used in a threshold implementation operation process performing in an S-box of an encryption circuit. In one aspect, the synchronization circuit includes an enable signal generator configured to generate an enable signal. The synchronization circuit may also include a synchronization unit included in an encryption circuit and located inside an S-box that performs a threshold implementation operation that calculates by dividing bits of an input signal into bits equal to or greater than the number of bits of the input signal. The synchronization unit may be configured to synchronize signals used in a threshold implementation operation process based on the generated enable signal.

METHOD, UNIT AND CIRCUIT FOR IMPLEMENTING BOOLEAN LOGIC BASED ON COMPUTING-IN-MEMORY TRANSISTOR
A method, a unit and circuits for implementing Boolean logics based on computing-in-memory transistors. The method is implemented by using the characteristics and the read-write mode of the computing-in-memory transistor; the basic unit consists of a computing-in-memory transistor and a pull resistor; the pull resistor in the basic unit is connected in series with the transistor, and the gate of the transistor is independent; the basic units can implement sixteen Boolean logic operations through different circuit structures and voltage configuration schemes. Compared with the logic circuit structure of the conventional CMOS transistors, the present disclosure can implement more logic operations with fewer transistors, which greatly optimizes circuit density and computing speed caused by data transmission between storage units and process units.
