向に限定される問題がある。Conventional IC cards include, for example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 58-221478.
As stated in the issue, the contact part for information communication with the external terminal is
The structure is such that it is provided at a location away from the C-chip mounting section or at the edge of the card. However, this I
C-cards have the problem that the card can only be used on one side, similar to magnetic cards, and can only be inserted into a terminal in one direction.

に配置されている。(Embodiment of the invention) An embodiment of the invention will be explained below with reference to Figs. 1 and 2. Fig. 1 shows an IC that communicates information with an external terminal by contact method.
FIG. 1 shows a plan view of the front and back sides of the card, and FIG. 2 shows a plan view of the back side. In FIG. ~7 are installed. The above contact terminal group 2~
7 are arranged symmetrically at diagonal positions on both the front and back surfaces of the card board 1.
本実施例におけろＩＣカードは、カード基板１の表面、
裏面のどちらの面からでも外部端末との情報交信が可能

に低下することになるので、逆に寿命は４倍になる。In this embodiment, the IC card has the surface of the card substrate 1,
Information can be exchanged with an external terminal from either side of the back, and the IC card can be inserted into the terminal without distinguishing between the front and rear sides.This allows the user to use the IC card.
When using a card, there is no need to pay attention to distinguishing between the front, back, and insertion direction of the card, so there is no need to be extra careful. Also, in this IC card,
Even against deterioration due to wear of external contact terminals, which causes poor contact, the number of contact surfaces of one contact terminal is reduced to 1/4 with probability.
On the contrary, the lifespan will be four times longer.
第３図、第４図は接触方式のＩＣカードの他の例を示し

対角の位置に対称に配置したものである。Figures 5 and 6 show an IC card that communicates information with an external terminal in an optical non-contact manner, and is made up of a transparent layer 10 that covers 1 light emitting element 8°, a light receiving element 9, and a pixel element and transmits light. Contact terminals are arranged symmetrically at diagonal positions on the front and back surfaces of the card board 1.
この実施例においても、前述した実施例と同様な作用、
効果を達成できる。This embodiment also has the same effect as the embodiment described above.
effect can be achieved.
