A technique for an IC capable of achieving the large expandability of the memory capacity, a memory capacity and cost burden in accordance with the requirements of users is provided. The IC card of the present invention is a flash memory card 306 mounted with a flash memory, characterized in that the flash memory card 306 can be inserted into a Plug-in SIM adaptor 305a and/or a mini UICC adaptor 305b each mounted with a secure IC, the flash memory card 306 is inserted into the Plug-in SIM adaptor 305a or the mini UICC adaptor 305b, thereby operating as a SIM attached with an expansion memory or a mini UICC attached with an expansion memory, and the flash memory card 306 can be physically removed from the Plug-in SIM adaptor 305a or the mini UICC adaptor 305b.
摘要:
In an IC card, there is provided a technique capable of large expandability of a memory volume, and a memory volume and a cost matched with a user's requirement. A SIM adapter 101 has a top panel 104 for covering a recess portion. In the top panel 104, when a memory card 103 is not inserted, the top panel 104 is positioned at a first height, and, when the memory card 103 is inserted, a part of the top panel 104 is engaged with a part of the SIM adapter 101 so that the top panel is latched at a second height higher than the first height. Also, into a SIM adapter, a top panel for fixing a memory card when the memory card is inserted is inserted, and a part of the top panel is engaged with a part of the SIM adapter so that the top panel is latched when the memory card is inserted. Further, into a SIM adapter, a top panel for fixing a memory card when the memory card is inserted is inserted, and the top panel has a terminal strip contacting with both of a terminal of the SIM adapter and a terminal of the memory card so that the terminal strip electrically connects between both of them.
摘要:
The loss of data stored in a secure memory card, such as a SIM card, due to the physical destruction thereof is prevented. A host unit performs card authentication of a memory card, and transmits update data for the memory card by security communication to update data when the result of the authentication is OK. Then, the host unit outputs a request for mirror-updating the card data to a base station server. When an access is permitted, the card data is transmitted to the base station server via the host unit to mirror-update the card data. When the mirror-updating of the card data is completed, the base station server returns a completion confirmation to the host unit, so that a data backup process is completed. By thus causing the base station server to mirror-update the data in the memory card, the loss of the stored data is prevented.
摘要:
To realize compatibility with an SIM card and adaptation to a high-speed memory access in an IC card module having a microcomputer and a memory card controller. An IC card module includes a plurality of first external connecting terminals and a plurality of second external connecting terminals both exposed to one surface of a card substrate, a microcomputer connected to the first external connecting terminals, a memory controller connected to the second external connecting terminals, and a volatile memory connected to the memory controller. The shape of the card substrate and the layout of the first external connecting terminals are based on a standard of plug-in UICC of ETSI TS 102 221 V4.4.0 (2001-10) or have compatibility. The second external connecting terminals are disposed outside the minimum range of the terminal layout based on the standard for the first external connecting terminals. The first and second external connecting terminals respectively include signal terminals electrically separated from one another.
摘要:
This invention is to provide an ultra-miniaturized, thin-sized memory card provided with a mechanism for preventing a wrong insertion to a memory card slot. A multi-function memory card is composed of a card body and a cap for housing the card body. The card body is made of mold resin that encapsulates plural semiconductor chips mounted on a main surface of a wiring substrate. The card body is housed into the cap with the back face of the wiring substrate facing outward. Guide channels are provided at both side faces of the cap for preventing that the card is inserted upside down. Further, a convex section is provided at the trailing edge of the cap for preventing that the card is inserted in the wrong direction.
