Abstract
A self-powering tamper detection system architecture includes a power source, a tamper detector configured to mechanically actuate a tamper switch when a tamper event occurs, a tamper switch electrically connected to the power source and mechanically connected to the tamper detector, a tamper unlock system configured to provide a tamper unlock signal when an authorized maintenance condition exists, a tamper controller configured to produce a tamper response when the tamper event is identified, and to not produce the tamper response when the tamper unlock signal is provided, and program memory configured to store program data. The tamper response produces a disruption of the program data.
