Abstract

Based on a first order model of the switching current flowing in CMOS cell, an investigation of the robustness against DPA of dual-rail logic is carried out. The result of this investigation, performed on 130nm process, is a formal identification of the design range in which dual-rail logic can be considered as robust.
