Abstract

This document describes techniques (300, 400) and apparatuses (100, 500, 600, 700) for peripheral authentication. These techniques (300, 400) and apparatuses (100, 500, 600, 700) may configure data lines for authentication between host device (102) and peripheral (106), use these configured data lines to authenticate the peripheral (106), and then reconfigure the data lines for use.
