Abstract
In this paper we develop a general model based on the width of a decoupling NMOS gate capacitor for use in the design of decoupling based Power Analysis Attack (PAA) countermeasures. A polynomial equation was determined based on experimental data to link the width of the decoupling element with the data security provided by the countermeasure architecture. The proposed model is meant to act as a tool for a designer when considering the incurred design overheads when allocating area during the initial planning phase. Experimental data was collected from the simulation of a partial decoupling countermeasure test bench implemented in 65 nm TSMC technology with Correlation Power Analysis (CPA) attacks performed on traces collected at the power supply pin.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
