Layman's Guide to IC Reverse Engineering

A Layman's Guide to IC Reverse Engineering

Intro The Layman's Guide to IC Reverse Engineering has been created to teach you the very basics of what it takes to reverse engineer integrated circuits. Not too much particular focus is given to the physics and math, just the bare essentials for a layman to turn images into logic. And chips into images. Kudos to academia, security researchers, and chip enthusiasts from around the world for all their papers and presentations that this effort draws inspiration from. Please reach out with corrections and comments to adc@intruded.net The Idea An interesting property of ICs is that their…
