Zusammenfassung:PURPOSE:To use the IC card for both a single-line type external device and a two-line type external device by setting communication mode information with a command from an external device. CONSTITUTION:An EEPROM 8 is stored with an application program, operation data, etc., and a communication mode information storage area is provided to store the communication mode information specified with a command for requesting the setting or alteration of a communication mode which is sent from the external device. When the IC card receives data from the external device, a processor 2 turns ON and OFF tri-state buffer circuits 9 and 10 according to the communication mode information stored in the EEPROM 8 to perform a communication switching process. Consequently, the IC card is usable for both the single-line external device and two-line type external device and the flexibility of the IC card when the card is used in a system is improved.
