Data carrier card, assembly of at least two data carrier cards and method of accessing at least one of the data carrier cards

摘要

A carrier element in card form has at least one integrated semiconductor circuit disposed on the carrier element. External terminals of the data carrier card have a terminal surface disposed on an edge surface of the carrier element. Further terminal surfaces are preferably provided on main surface areas of the carrier element for an external terminal. If a plurality of data carrier cards are laid congruently one on top of the other, an electrical connection between the external terminals of the respective data carrier cards is established in a simple way.
