ABSTRACT:
A protection circuit (1) is coupled to a processor (2) and a memory device (3) which preferably form a physical unit, and prevents unauthorized access to the memory device (3) by combining internal and/or external signals (s2, s3, s4; s1) in a logic device (5) for detecting the unauthorized access. These signals are control signals of the processor-memory system and correspond to the status of the latter. In the event of an unauthorized memory access, the logic device (5) disables an externally accessible data interface (6) and/or inhibits the control signals (s5) necessary for access to the memory device (3).
