Abstract:
Integrated device (100) comprising a plurality of conducting layers (115a-115c), each having a first (120ga-120gc) and a second (120va-120vc) power supply contact for providing, respectively, a first and a second binary value, and means for supplying at least one identification bit of a version of the integrated device (100); the integrated device (100) includes, for each identification bit, parity check means (135abi, 135bci) having a plurality of input terminals whose number is equal to the number of conducting layers (115a-115c), and an output terminal, each input terminal being connected to one contact selected from the first (120ga-120gc) and the second (120va-120vc) power supply contacts of a corresponding one of the conducting layers (115a-115c), and the output terminal supplying the corresponding identification bit.
