Patent number: 9633196Abstract: An electronic system, an electronic apparatus, and an access authentication method thereof are provided. The electronic system includes a master apparatus and a slave apparatus. The slave apparatus is coupled to the master apparatus through a serial transmission interface. The slave apparatus includes a data storage unit protected by the slave apparatus with a predetermined key. The master apparatus sends an access request to the data storage unit through the serial transmission interface. The slave apparatus determines whether the master apparatus is allowed to access the data storage unit according to the predetermined key and a key inputted by the master apparatus for authentication.Type: GrantFiled: March 5, 2015Date of Patent: April 25, 2017Assignee: Wistron CorporationInventors: Yu-Ta Lin, Chun-Yen Chang, Wen-Yang Wu, Tzu-Yi Huang
