I need a hard to clone Micro. I'd appreciate any input from the illuminati that inhabit this corner of cyberspace. I am aware that PICs with the security fuses blown are very easy to clone using invasive techniques. I have seen websitest that offer to "recover lost code" from AVRs, Philips 8051's and others. Do any of you guys have any experience in what's easy and what's hard to read and/or clone in the current range of reasonably priced (sub US$10) micros? -- Alf Katz alfkatz@remove.the.obvious.ieee.org
Hard to clone Micros.

do you have some ressources that explain how to clone micros (you wrote "very easy to clone", how easy is it?)? I would be very interested into knowing the principles. Even some bookmarks where it is "offered" to recover lost code may be interested.

The most design effort in this area, is done in smart card controllers, so I'd look in that sector. -jg
