1. An identity verification circuit for an electronic device to allow a user to carry out electronic identity verification with a biological characteristic of the user on an authentication server storing data associated with the biological characteristic, the identity verification circuit comprising:
a memory having a storage space for storing a verification key code;
a biological characteristics acquisition device configured to acquire the biological characteristic and generating a biological characteristic code corresponding to the biological characteristic, wherein the biological characteristics acquisition device is configured to acquire a fingerprint, an iris pattern, a palm print, a vein pattern, a sound pattern or a facial pattern;
a processor connected with the memory and the biological characteristics acquisition device and provided with a program code, the processor comparing the biological characteristic code with the verification key code according to the program code to determine whether to generate the unverified code and, after the unverified code is determined to be generated, processing the biological characteristic code and the verification key code according to the program code to generate the unverified code corresponding to at least one of the biological characteristic code and the verification key code; and
a communicator connected with the processor and configured to transmit the unverified code to the authentication server through the Internet based on an instruction by the processor and to receive a verification result of the electronic identity verification associated with the unverified code from the authentication server, wherein the communicator is connected with the memory such that the communicator receives a variable key code to be stored in the memory to form the verification key code in the memory, and the variable key code is passively changed or actively replaced.
