Abstract

A data carrier (4) for the contactless communication of communication information (KD) with a transmitting/receiving station (1) includes receiving circuit (7) for receiving an HF signal (HF) containing the communication information (KD) from the transmitting/receiving station (1), and processing circuit (10) for processing the received communication information (KD), and supply voltage generating circuit (13) for rectifying the received HF signal (HF) and for energizing the processing circuit (10) with a supply voltage (UV), and reset circuit (14) for resetting, when the supply voltage (UV) decreases below a reset voltage value (UR), the processing performed by the processing circuit (10), the reset circuit (14) now being adapted to interrupt the processing of the communication information (KD) by the processing circuit (10) at least partially when the supply voltage (UV) decreases below an interruption voltage value (UU), the interruption voltage value (UU) being greater than the reset voltage value (UR).
