Analog signals from gas sensors are used to recognize all types of VOC (Volatile Organic Compound) substances, such as toxic gases, tobacco or ethanol. The processes to recognize these substances include acquisition, treatment and machine learning for classification, which can all be efficiently implemented on a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) aided by Low-Voltage Differential Signaling (LVDS). This article proposes a low-cost 11-bit effective number of bits (ENOB) sigma-delta Analog to Digital Converter (ADC), with an SNR of 75.97 dB and an SFDR of 72.28 dB, whose output is presented on screen in real time, thanks to the use of a Linux System on Chip (SoC) system that enables parallelism, high-level programming and provides a working environment for the scientific treatment of gas sensor signals. The high frequency achieved by the implemented ADC allows for multiplexing the capture of several analog signals with an optimal resolution. Additionally, several ADCs can be implemented in the same FPGA so several analog signals can be digitalized in parallel.

New large classes of permutations over ℤ 2 n based on T-Functions as Self-Inverting Permutation Functions (SIPFs) are presented. The presented classes exhibit negligible or low complexity when implemented in emerging FPGA technologies. The target use of such functions is in creating the so called Secret Unknown Ciphers (SUC) to serve as resilient Clone-Resistant structures in smart non-volatile Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA) devices. SUCs concepts were proposed a decade ago as digital consistent alternatives to the conventional analog inconsistent Physical Unclonable Functions PUFs. The proposed permutation classes are designed and optimized particularly to use non-consumed Mathblock cores in programmable System-on-Chip (SoC) FPGA devices. Hardware and software complexities for realizing such structures are optimized and evaluated for a sample expected target FPGA technology. The attained security levels of the resulting SUCs are evaluated and shown to be scalable and usable even for post-quantum crypto systems.

Purpose The data protection is always a vital problem in the network era. High-speed cryptographic chip is an important part to ensure data security in information interaction. This paper aims to provide a new peripheral component interconnect express (PCIe) encryption card solution with high performance, high integration and low cost. Design/methodology/approach This work proposes a System on Chip architecture scheme of high-speed cryptographic chip for PCIe encryption card. It integrated CPU, direct memory access, the national and international cipher algorithm (data encryption standard/3 data encryption standard, Rivest–Shamir–Adleman, HASH, SM1, SM2, SM3, SM4, SM7), PCIe and other communication interfaces with advanced extensible interface-advanced high-performance bus three-level bus architecture. Findings This paper presents a high-speed cryptographic chip that integrates several high-speed parallel processing algorithm units. The test results of post-silicon sample shows that the high-speed cryptographic chip can achieve Gbps-level speed. That means only one single chip can fully meet the requirements of cryptographic operation performance for most cryptographic applications. Practical implications The typical application in this work is PCIe encryption card. Besides server’s applications, it can also be applied in terminal products such as high-definition video encryption, security gateway, secure routing, cloud terminal devices and industrial real-time monitoring system, which require high performance on data encryption. Social implications It can be well applied on many other fields such as power, banking, insurance, transportation and e-commerce. Originality/value Compared with the current strategy of high-speed encryption card, which mostly uses hardware field-programmable gate arrays or several low-speed algorithm chips through parallel processing in one printed circuit board, this work has provided a new PCIe encryption card solution with high performance, high integration and low cost only in one chip.
