Abstract
An IC card reader may comprise a first interface unit that communicates with an IC chip of an IC card by using a first communication mode, a second interface unit that communicates with the IC chip by using a second communication mode, and a control unit that controls the first and second interface units, and reads data from the IC chip through an interface unit, which first receives a response message from the IC chip, between the first and second interface units.
Claims17
An IC card reader comprising:
- a first interface unit configured to communicate with an IC chip of an IC card by using a first communication mode;
- a second interface unit configured to communicate with the IC chip by using a second communication mode;
- and
- a control unit configured to control the first and second interface units, and read data from the IC chip through an interface unit, which first receives a response message from the IC chip, between the first and second interface units.

An operating method of an IC card reader, comprising the steps of:
- attempting communication with an IC chip of an IC card by using a first communication mode;
- attempting communication with the IC chip by using a second communication mode;
- receiving at least one of a first response message based on communication using the first communication mode and a second response message based on communication using the second communication mode from the IC chip;
- and
- reading data from the IC chip by using a communication mode of the first communication mode and the second communication mode, which corresponds to a response message that is first received between the first response message and the second response message.

An IC card reader comprising:
- a first interface unit configured to communicate with an IC chip of an IC card by using a first communication mode;
- a second interface unit configured to communicate with the IC chip by using a second communication mode;
- and
- a control unit configured to control the first and second interface units, read data from the IC chip through the second interface unit when failure occurs in the first interface unit, and read data from the IC chip through the first interface unit when failure occurs in the second interface unit.
