IC Clone is one of the most widely used MCU crack scenarios. It is used by a large variety of IC attackers from individuals, who want cheaper electronic gadgets, to large companies interested in increasing their sales without large investment in design.
For example, dishonest competitors may try to clone existing product’s integrated circuit to reduce development costs. Of course they will have to spend some effort to disguise the fact of piracy, but compared to honest development cost this is negligible. Normally IC Clone requires microcontroller reverse engineering of the device to some extent.
IC Crack Methods
IC crack can be diversify as three different ways like semi-invasive mcu cracking, un-invasive IC crack, invasive crack IC. And ultra-violet radiation IC breaking is the most ancient way of this industry. In the middle of 1970 attacker use this way t...
