Abstract:
The present invention discloses a method for producing a portable data carrier using a continuous production method, in particular a roll-to-roll process. At least one foil to be processed is provided as rolled material. The unwound foil is at least partially coated with an adhesive on at least one side. The foil is subsequently scored along at least one folding edge on at least one side of the foil. The foil is then folded and agglutinated along the scored folding edge in a custom-fit manner. The foil is folded towards the side, which is coated with adhesive, wherein the side coated with adhesive is arranged on the opposite-lying side of the foil, which has at least one scored folding edge along which folding occurs. Finally, data carriers are punched out in a custom-fit matter from the at least one folded and agglutinated foil.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for producing a portable data carrier (1) and to a data carrier for non-contact communication, comprising the following method steps: providing a carrier layer (81) with a coil (4) for near-field communication; applying a covering layer (83) to the carrier layer (81); and laminating (10) the resulting layer sequence (81, 83). Before the application of the covering layer (83), a coil stabilizing means (5) is applied to the coil (4) and/or the conductor track of the coil (4) is laid in a region (7) that is not parallel to the side edge.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for producing a portable data carrier, especially a smart card, comprising the following steps: making a carrier strip available which has a top side and a bottom side opposite said top side; and forming a contact field, having at least one contact surface, on a top side of the carrier strip by way of an electrochemical process. The electric supply line in the edge region of the contact surface required for forming the contact surface and the contact surface regions formed in the edge region of the data carrier are removed and/or provided with an electrically insulating coat. The invention further relates to a portable data carrier, a carrier strip and to the use of the data carrier as a subscriber identity module.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for exchanging data between a chip card and a terminal, wherein the data exchange occurs in a contact-based manner via a contact field (1) according to ISO-7816-2. The method comprises the steps of: activating a first contact assignment in response to a first communication protocol (ISO, SWP) present on the contact field, wherein the first communication protocol (ISO, SWP) occupies a first part of contact surfaces (C1, C2, C3, C5, C6, C7) of the contact field (1); recognizing a change of the communication protocol (ISO, SWP, USB) from a first communication protocol (ISO, SWP) to a second communication protocol (USB) by means of a protocol recognition unit (21) in the chip card; and activating a second contact assignment in response to the recognized second communication protocol (USB), wherein the second communication protocol (USB) occupies a second part of contact surfaces (C1, C5, C6, C7) of the contact field (1). According to the invention, the first and the second part of contact surfaces of the contact field are selected from an ISO-7816-2 contact field (1) having a maximum of six contact surfaces and the second communication protocol (USB) requires at least two data lines (D+, D-).
Abstract:
The invention relates to a chip card with a card body (1), wherein a miniature chip card (4) can be detached from the card body (1); an integrated semiconductor circuit (81) is inserted in the miniature chip card; the card body (1) has, along the outer contour of the miniature chip card (4), a complete gap (7), apart from two connections, by means of which the miniature chip card (4) is held in the card body (1), and the two connections (6) are arranged on in each case one side edge of the outer contour of the miniature chip card (4). In this case, both connections (6) are in the form of webs (5).
Abstract:
A chip module (10) to be arranged in a data carrier body (100) for the formation of a portable data carrier (200) comprises a support strip (20), an integrated circuit (30) arranged on the support strip (20), contact surfaces (40) connected to the integrated circuit (30) for data communication with contact, and a coil (50) arranged on the support strip (20) and connected to the integrated circuit (30) for contactless data communication. The coil (50) forms coil contacts (60, 60') on a discontinuity of the coil (50), which contacts form a first part of a switch element (60, 60', 120) on the support strip (20). By means of this switching element, the second part (120) of which is arranged on the data carrier body (100), the coil contacts (60, 60') can be connected when the chip module (10) is arranged in the data carrier body (100).
