The RO PUF contains two multiplexers, two counters, a comparator circuit, and several ring oscillators. The RO PUF generates an output by comparing the frequencies of two oscillators by counting the amount of times it has oscillated. 2, record 1, English, - ring%20oscillator%20physical%20unclonable%20function

Une [autre] solution pour construire des PUF [fonctions physiques non clonables] basées sur des différences de délais est d'utiliser des structures d'oscillateurs logiques libres en anneau [...] On parle alors de RO-PUF. Cette fois-ci, la comparaison est faite au niveau de la fréquence d'oscillation de deux oscillateurs (choisis parmi un grand nombre) théoriquement identiques. 2, record 1, French, - oscillateur%20en%20anneau%2DPUF

Una de las PUF más utilizadas debido a su simplicidad para ser implementada en FPGA [matriz de puertas lógicas programable en campo] es la PUF de oscilador de anillo (RO-PUF), que compara las frecuencias de los osciladores por parejas para generar el bit de salida. Para generar una respuesta aleatoria, estas frecuencias deben ser lo más similares posible. 1, record 1, Spanish, - PUF%20de%20oscilador%20de%20anillo

Two well-known electronic PUFs [physical unclonable functions] are the arbiter and ring oscillator PUF(ROPUF) designs... Both of these designs exploit unique variations in the propagation delays through interconnects and logic gates. The arbiter PUF... comprises two identically laid out paths. To measure a response bit from the arbiter, a rising edge is input simultaneously to the two paths. This input signal races through the circuit, and a latch at the output detects which path propagated the input signal faster. 3, record 2, English, - arbiter%20physical%20unclonable%20function

L'arbiter-PUF est une fonction physique non clonable basée sur le délai de propagation d'un signal dans deux chemins théoriquement identiques. Mais à cause des variations de fabrication, les deux lignes de délais sont légèrement différentes. La détection du chemin le plus court permet de générer une réponse. Malheureusement, ce type de fonctions physiques non clonables souffre d'une grande faiblesse face aux attaques par modélisation [...] 3, record 2, French, - arbiter%2DPUF
