ABSTRACT:
An increasing monotonic counter over n bits formed as an integrated circuit, including an assembly of 2n+1−(n+2) irreversible counting cells distributed in at least n groups of 2p−1 counting cells, where p designates the group rank, and at least n−1 parity calculators, each calculator providing a bit of rank p, increasing from the most significant bit of the result count, taking into account the states of the cells of the group of same rank.
