ABSTRACT:
To provide efficient protection, in reading mode, of the stored data elements, the integrated circuit has an EEPROM type memory and a lock (L) protecting the zone of the memory. The memory contains a read-protected password (PW) and the circuit has means to release the lock (L) if the circuit receives a write command at the address of the password of the same encrypted password (PW). Application notably to electronic systems and instruments using confidential codes, such as car radios.
