    摘要: Apparatus and method for implementing biometrics-based authentication. In a preferred embodiment, the present invention is embodied in a portable device. Specifically, in one embodiment, the portable device includes a microprocessor, a non-volatile memory coupled thereto, and a biometrics-based authentication module controlled by the microprocessor. Preferably, the biometrics technology used is fingerprint authentication technology. The authentication module is capable of registering a fingerprint upon first use of the portable device, storing an encoded version of the fingerprint in the non-volatile memory. Subsequently, the authentication module can read a person's fingerprint and reliably determine whether the fingerprint matches the registered fingerprint stored in the non-volatile memory. If a match is found, access to information in the non-volatile memory is granted to that person; otherwise, access is denied. Embodiments of the present invention thus provide a highly convenient, secured and reliable method and system for user authentication and access control which was not achievable in prior art password-based authentication approaches.

    摘要: A portable data storage device includes a USB interface (3), a USB controller (2), a master control unit (7), and two or more NAND flash memory devices (9, 19). The master control unit (7) can send data to the NAND flash memory devices (9, 19) simultaneously through parallel respective 8-bit buses. The master control unit (7) controls the operation of the memory devices (9, 19) by sending them identical control data through respective control signal lines (6, 16). When data is to be stored it is divided into portions which are sent to the respective memory devices (9, 19), and both memory devices are instructed to store data simultaneously. When data is to be retrieved both are instructed to write data back simultaneously to the MCU.
