This paper presents the design and hardware implementation of an efficient and optimal induction heating circuit for induction sealing. The circuit has a low implementation cost, so the proposed system with a simple and efficient structure can cover the needs of this technology field. Here, the focus is on the implementation process and practical tips in this field. The proposed induction sealing circuit uses zero-voltage switching technology with parallel MOSFETs. In this structure, by using inductors and capacitors with appropriate tolerable current and voltage, it can provide the power and frequency of the output signal applied to the induction coil for various applications. The use of transistors with suitable current capability makes the circuit appropriate for applications that require stronger magnetic fields. In addition, the induction coil has an elliptical structure, which makes it efficient for sealing a wide range of bottles. It is constructed using Litz wire to reduce power loss in the coil. In the presented structure, the frequency of the output signal is equal to 31 kHz, which is suitable for creating an eddy current in the aluminum foil in the bottle caps. The circuit has been tested and investigated and has acceptable sealing for various industries.

In this paper, we design a lightweight and modified random key generation for PRESENT block cipher which is applicable in the encryption of the digital signals. In the block ciphers, the master key is used directly in the encryption process for the data (plaintext). But in this work, a master key (initial key) is used to derive the new random master keys (random session keys) and use these keys for the encryption process. The use of random keys will overcome the brute force attack that can be applied to the PRESENT cipher. The random session keys generated will produce different ciphertexts for the same plaintext for every session. In this approach, we take advantage of the block cipher to produce random keys. The PRESENT cipher is shared in both random key generation and encryption process. Therefore, the proposed structure has both random key generation and data encryption in a unified circuit. This property reduces hardware resources. The implementation results, in 180 nm CMOS technologies, show the proposed structure is comparable in terms of area and delay with other works.
