Chipkarte und Verfahren zur Herstellung einer Chipkarte

摘要

The invention relates to a smart card (1) for the contact-free transmission of electrical signals to a terminal, with a card body in which a coupling element (2) with conducting strips (3) and contact connections (4) and a semiconductor chip (5) with an electronic circuit associated with the coupling element (2) are integrated. The semiconductor chip (5) is provided at its surface with contact elements (6) for electrical connection of the electronic circuit and contact connections (4) of the coupling element (2). A support (7) which braces at least part of the conducting strips (2) and contact connections (4) is provided. The support is made of an electrically insulating material and provided in the vicinity of the contact connections (4) of the coupling element (2) with an opening for the semiconductor chip (5).
