First card format is the flash card form in this example, second card format is the smart card form, when file system is sent will carry out the request signal of access the time flash card (first card) by driver, promptly receive the request signal of this flash card form this moment at the integration-type control chip of step S301 reader device; Then, at the conformability control chip of step S303 reader device by driver at this requestor locking signal amount; Because finish the locking signal amount, then can carry out the data access action at step S305 to flash card, if be used among the embodiment of USB interface, promptly use the host-host protocol that meets the USB specification to carry out the access of data, mainly comprise and send the read/write instruction, carry out the data of read/write flash card and respond read/write state etc.; After data access is finished, promptly discharge this semaphore at step S307.
On the other hand, when carrying out the flash card access action, smart card (second card) application program is sent request signal to smart card, receive this request signal at step S309 by the control chip of above-mentioned reader device this moment, also will at first lock above-mentioned semaphore, but this semaphore is taken by the requestor to the flash card in the above-mentioned flow process, therefore, driver at step S311 reader device then makes the requestor of smart card enter dormant state, and the release of wait-semaphore; After above-mentioned access to flash card was finished, operating system was learnt the information that is discharged among the step S307, was the requestor of arousing intelligent card application program to smart card at step S313, promptly entered wake-up states by dormant state; At step S315 by the integration-type control chip of reader device by the requestor locking signal amount of driver to this smart card; Afterwards, carry out data access at step S317 at smart card, the data exchange program that promptly meets smart card APDU communication protocol comprises the APDU instruction (APDU command) and response (APDU response) of transmitting between smart card and application program of intelligent card; After finishing this requestor and access action, promptly discharge this semaphore at step S319 control chip, to discharge shared usb bus related resource.
In above-mentioned each card format (card format and another card format, be not limited to the foregoing description) and system between the signal transmission all finish with handling by the integration-type control chip in the reader device, and wherein data access is all controlled by same driver, and each card carries out data access by file system, as the flash card form, maybe can carry out data access via the middle layer software, as the smart card form by a vertical application.
In actual applications, for guaranteeing not have lost package or wrong transmission by data accessed in flash card or the smart card, can between the device (as computer system, reader device or other peripheral unit) that SIE and data are obtained, set up the storer of first in first out (FIFO) pattern, so that data are kept in operation.
Another embodiment is shown in Fig. 3 B, the requestor transposing of first card and second card, ask by the smart card of driver reading card device by smart card (second card) application program earlier, and the request of startup flash card (first card) is arranged during the data access, the flow process of the embodiment of the invention is as follows:
At the beginning, application program of intelligent card earlier sends request signal to smart card, and receive request signal at above-mentioned card format at the integration-type control chip of step S331 reader device this moment; Also at first lock above-mentioned semaphore at step S333, thus the control chip of reader device promptly according to the request signal of this card format by driver to requestor locking signal amount; Afterwards, the data exchange program in that step S335 promptly meets smart card APDU communication protocol comprises and transmits APDU instruction and response between smart card and application program of intelligent card; After finishing this requestor and access action, be release semaphore at step S337, to discharge shared usb bus related resource.
Simultaneously, file system is also sent the request signal that will carry out access by driver to flash card, in like manner, receives this request signal at the integration-type control chip of step S339 reader device; Afterwards, to lock the above-mentioned semaphore that by smart card requestor taken by driver at the requestor of flash card at the control chip of step S341 reader device, but because semaphore is occupied, so the driver of reader device then makes the requestor of flash card enter dormant state earlier, and the release of wait-semaphore; After above-mentioned access to smart card is finished, learn step S337 release semaphore in step S343 operating system, promptly wake file system up by the requestor of driver to flash card, promptly enter wake-up states by dormant state; And by driver the requestor of this flash card is locked this semaphore by the control chip of reader device at step S345; Because finish the locking signal amount, then can carry out access action at step S347, as the host-host protocol that meets the USB specification carries out the access of data to flash card; After data access is finished, promptly discharge this semaphore at step S349.
Aforesaid way is to utilize the control chip of a reader device successively to finish the requestor of two distinct interfaces and card by driver, avoided known technology to utilize the solicit operation of two drivers to need one during, the mistake that reader device produces in the time of may receiving other order that another driver sends under the situation of also not finishing an operation to a plurality of conversions (transfer).
Above-mentioned first embodiment is the driver in the operating system installation special use, carries out signal judgment at the signal of different cards, and carries out the keyholed back plate of read-write program.
And utilize the integration-type control chip of reader device of the present invention and its data access method to also have second embodiment, its hardware only need provide an interface, but at two logic interfacings of two kinds of card design (logicinterface), in conjunction with the firmware of integration-type control chip (firmware) scheme wherein, the card signal that will read at reader device carries out interpretation, one of logic interfacing that decision will be used.
In this embodiment, the present invention utilizes the control chip of integration-type control chip and judgment mechanism wherein to form the solution of a form of firmware, by being provided, two logic interfacings integrate flash card and intelligent card reading device, one of them interface (interface A) is responsible for the read-write of flash card, and another one interface (interface B) is responsible for the read-write of smart card.Under this framework, the processing mode that integration-type control chip requires read-write also depends on the mechanism of the devices communicating of usb host system and double nip simultaneously.Host computer system to the data transmission on the distinct interface be based on USB handle (transaction) level other, therefore at the reader device end, always be treated to minimal processing unit with this, such as in the processing procedure of Processing Interface A, receive the request of interface B, reader device (including integration-type control chip) can be managed the request of shielding interface B so, and by the time after the finishing dealing with of interface A, goes to handle the request of interface B again.
Adopt this integration-type control chip framework to compare with traditional many control chips framework, the problem that needs to solve is how integration-type control chip accomplishes optimization to the processing that the read-write from different cards requires, make two interfaces share a cover hardware resource, be different from known technology and use two cover hardware mode, though the present invention overlaps hardware with one, but adopt the read-write requirement of the different cards of technology alternate treatment of time-sharing multiplex (Time Division Multiplexing), above-mentioned each card format interface (A, B) data transmission on is according to the processing rank of transmitting transceiver device, and data with this each card format of time-sharing multiplex principle alternate treatment, and can comprise that one is coupled to the microprocessing unit (not showing in the drawings) of serial interface engine and impact damper, and produce the data of serial transmission form according to this time-sharing multiplex principle according to firmware.The configuration diagram of the two logic interfacings of its single device that adopts as shown in Figure 4.
