Comparison of Normal and Trojan-Infected Integrated Circuits: Understanding Hardware Security Threats

High-detail comparison diagram: - Left: Normal integrated circuit (blue tones), regular gate-level netlist structure, symmetrical layout, no redundant components, labeled "Normal Circuit". - Right: Trojan-infected circuit (red tones), hidden trigger module (tiny anomalous logic gates), redundant connections, localized heat spots, labeled "Malicious Circuit (Trojan)". - Style: 3D rendered chip wireframe, sci-fi aesthetic, cold background, highlights and shadows to emphasize differences. - Annotations: Arrows and text labels pointing to Trojan features (e.g., hidden modules, abnormal paths), High-detail visual comparison between integrated circuits. Left side shows normal integrated circuit in blue tones with netlist structure labeled 'Normal Circuit'. Right side features Trojan-infected circuit in red tones with hidden trigger module labeled 'Malicious Circuit (Trojan)'. Sci-fi aesthetic, cold background, annotating differences with arrows and text. Highlighted circuits reflect light to emphasize features
