Abstract

PURPOSE:To miniaturize electric equipment by also enabling an IC card to be used by providing IC card attachment and an addition circuit when the IC card is used with a memory card. CONSTITUTION:The device is comprised in such a way that both the memory card 5 and the IC card 19 can be used without making small electronic equipment 1 into a large scale by providing only an insertion opening 4 equipped with a connector for memory card 5 at a small electronic equipment 1 side, and using attachment 14 fitting in the insertion opening 4 in the IC card 19. Thereby, it is enough to provide only one card insertion opening at the electronic equipment 1 side, and the electronic equipment 1 can be miniaturized as enabling both the memory card 5 and the IC card 19 to be used.
