    Abstract: A magnetoresistive random access memory (MRAM) die may include an MRAM cell, a reservoir defined by the MRAM die, and a chemical disposed in the reservoir. At least one boundary of the reservoir may be configured to be damaged in response to attempted tampering with the MRAM die, such that at least some of the chemical is released from the reservoir when the at least one boundary of the reservoir is damaged. In some examples, at least some of the chemical is configured to contact and alter or damage at least a portion of the MRAM cell when the chemical is released from the reservoir.

    Abstract: A system for initializing circuitry is presented. The system employs a power-on reset circuit having a threshold voltage and a programmable switch circuit. The power-on reset circuit has a detector circuit for detecting a reference voltage, and a one-sided latch for generating an output voltage reflective of the reference voltage. The detector circuit has a threshold after which the one-sided latch is activated. The programmable switch circuit receives the output voltage of the power-on reset circuit and generates an enable signal and its complement based on the status of an internal fuse. The switch point of the power-on reset circuit provides for a rapid increase in output voltage that offsets parasitic leakage current in the programmable switch circuit that can result in improper enable signal output. A high resistance direct path to ground on an output node of the power-on reset circuit prevents residual charge from causing an undesired misfire.
