Abstract
An adapter device for connecting a memory card to a host. The adapter having a primary connector to be connected with the host taking up the adapter device and a secondary connector to take up the memory card. An interrupter of the adapter is connected to the primary connector and to the secondary connector. A device interface circuit connected to the primary connector controls the opening and closing of the interrupter depending on the commands received by the first connector, wherein the device interface circuit is configured so that if the primary connector receives a command from the host that is not related to the memory card, the device interface circuit opens the interrupter after the command has passed.
