SYSTEM AND METHOD OF AUTHENTIFYING

摘要

The device comprises a memory ( 10 ) with a first section ( 11 ) and a second section ( 12 ). The second section ( 12 ) can be read only after erasure of the first section ( 11 ). The memory is suitable for authentication purposes, in that the first section ( 11 ) contains a first code part and the second section contains a second code part of an identification code. The device is preferably an semiconductor device and can be integrated in articles and in record carriers.
