Abstract:
A password power switch circuit for an electronic device includes a thermal energy conversion circuit and a programmable control chip. The thermal energy conversion circuit is used for generating a plurality of sensing temperatures. The programmable control chip is coupled to the thermal energy conversion circuit for storing a password and generating a power-on signal to a central processing device of the electronic device according to a plurality of locations corresponding to the plurality of sensing temperatures and a plurality of locations corresponding to the password. The central processing device determines at least one operation associated with the electronic device according to the power-on signal.
