Security Supervisors
M41ST87: "Securitizor" with Tamper Detect and RAM Clear

The M41ST87 Tamper IC is ST's first Supervisor for Secure Applications. Its two independent Tamper Detect circuits can be used to detect and intercept an intrusion into any system where sensitive data must be safeguarded.

The RAM Clear functions can be configured to clear the M41ST87's internal, non-volatile RAM and/or external RAM, as well as generate a processor interrupt. An Oscillator Fail circuit detects tampering with the oscillator, and a Unique Serial Number in each device provides the traceability required in secure applications.
