Revision "F" 04/07/05

While a wide variety of techniques exist to enhance "design for security" , many incorporate specialized components and circuitry that add cost and increase complexity.  Adapticom seeks to enhance "design for security" capability by more highly integrating designs, utilizing the most secure and advanced programmable and reconfigurable digital, analog, and mixed signal devices.

Recent advances in device integration have allowed the propagation of reconfigurable devices that encompass a wide variety of common board level functions.  The use of such devices has had a significant positive effect on Design For Security (DFS) efforts.  Rather than adding components and complexity to the design, these components reduce design overhead in a surprising number of ways:

• Reduced component count for simplified BOM.
• Reduced PCB space requirements.
• Increased design revision capability, while maintaining "design for security".
• Use of the same devices across multiple products or designs increases purchasing power and simplifies inventory requirements.
• Enhanced design re-use capabilities.
• Simplified "design for security" research and development through programmable elements.
• Use of similar tools across devices and products reduces engineer educational efforts.
