IC card, portable terminal, and portable electronic apparatus
An IC card includes a communication unit and a controller. The communication unit can communicate with one communication destination by a plurality of interfaces including a first interface and a second interface. The controller processes a command received by the communication unit, and makes the communication unit transmit a response to the command. In a case where the first interface becomes unavailable after the communication unit receives the command by the first interface until the communication unit transmits the response to the command, the controller makes the communication unit transmit a response containing discontinuation information indicating that the transmission of the response to the command received by the first interface is discontinued by the second interface.
1. An IC card comprising:
a communication unit that includes a first interface and a second interface, and that is capable of communicating with an external device;
a controller that executes a command received by the communication unit, and that makes the communication unit transmit a response to the command; and
a storage unit,
wherein the controller is configured to receive a first command from the external device by the first interface execute the first command received, when the communication unit cannot output a first response that is a processing result of the first command by the first interface to the external device, store the first response to the storage unit as a discontinued response, and when the communication unit receives a special command to request for transmitting the discontinued response from the external device by the second interface, read out the discontinued response from the storage unit and make the communication unit transmit a response containing the discontinued response as a response to the special command by the second interface to the external device.
2. The IC card according to claim 1 ,
wherein the controller unit determines whether or not the discontinued response is stored in the storage unit when the communication unit receives an arbitrary command other than the special command from the external device by the second interface, and
wherein the controller makes the communication unit transmit, to the external device, a response containing discontinuation information indicating that the communication unit could not output the first response to the external device, as a response to the arbitrary command, by the second interface if the controller determines that the discontinued response is stored in the storage unit.
3. The IC card according to claim 2 ,
wherein the controller makes the communication unit transmit the response containing the discontinuation information when the arbitrary command is normally ended.
4. The IC card according to claim 1 ,
wherein the controller deletes the discontinued response from the storage unit after transmitting the response containing the discontinued response.
