Integrated circuit (I.C) card or chip card

摘要

The I.C. cad (1) has a transmission module (3) built into the body (2) as a separate unit. The module is equipped with an antenna (4,5). the antenna has at least one coil (4), for transmitting energy and data inductively. Alternatively there is at least one electrical conducting layer (5), for transmitting energy and data capacitively. The module has also contact surfaces (6) to couple the "chip" module (7) with an I.C. package and contact surfaces (21) for coupling. There is a support layer (9) for the antenna.
