ABSTRACT: Physical Unclonable Functions (PUFs) are specialized circuit components leveraging microchip fabrication variations to create unique fingerprint-like responses to specific inputs. These device-specific variations make PUFs ideal for cryptographic key generation due to their difficulty in replication, even by the original manufacturer. Arbiter-based PUFs, specifically on Xilinx Virtex-5 FPGAs, initially exhibited low uniqueness. To address this, variants like XOR Arbiter PUF and Double Arbiter PUF were introduced, offering highly unique responses on FPGAs at a comparable cost. This study evaluates these PUFs on Xilinx 7-series FPGAs, introducing the 3-1 Double Arbiter PUF as a new mode. Compared to the conventional Arbiter PUF and 3-XOR Arbiter PUF, it demonstrates better response uniqueness and randomness (50%), highlighting the potential for improved PUF evaluation metrics with this new mode of operation.
