Data carrier module having indication means for indicating the result of a test operation
First Claim
1. A module (2) for a data carrier (1) adapted to communicate with a communication station (3), which module (2) includes an integrated circuit device (9) and transmission means (10), which are connected to the integrated circuit device (9) in an electrically conductive manner, and which module (2) can be tested with the aid of test means (19, 23) during a test operation, which test means (19, 23) can generate a test-result signal (TRS1;
- TRS2, TRS3;
TRS4) in dependence on a test result thus determined, indication means (20;
22;
24), which are electrically switchable between at least two indication modes (“
1”
, “
0”
), being switchable to a given indication mode in dependence on the test-result signal (TRS1;
TRS2, TRS3;
TRS4), characterized in that the indication means (20;
22;
24) are arranged on the module (2).

Abstract
A module (2) for a data carrier (1) includes an integrated circuit device (9) and transmission means (10), and the module (2) can be tested with the aid of test means (19) during a test operation, which test means (19) can generate a test-result signal (TRS2, TRS3) in dependence on a test result thus determined, indication means (22), which are electrically switchable to a given indication mode (“1”, “0”) in dependence on the test-result signal (TRS2, TRS3), which indication means (22) are advantageously arranged directly on the module (2).
