Types of Smart CardsTypes of Smart CardsBased on the way the smart card interacts with the Card Reader, smart cards are of three types:
Contact Smart Cards
Contactless Smart Cards
Hybrid Cards
Contact Smart Card
Defined in ISO 7810 standard.
Have contact area of approx. 1 cm2
This area comprises of several gold-plated contact pads.
Pads provides electrical conductivity.
Power is supplied by card reader.
Contactless smart cards
• Uses RF induction technology to communicate and to be powered.
• Defined in ISO 14443 standard.
• Communicates at data rates of 106-848 kbps.
• Requires an antenna to communicate.
Hybrids
• Implements former two
interfaces on a single
card.
• On developing stage.
• Example is Andante,
Porto’s multi-application
transport card.
ApplicationsApplications
• Financial > As ATM cards, Fuel cards, SIMs. > As electronic wallet.• Identification• Public Transit. • Educational Institutes. > Tracking Student attendance. > As an electronic purse to pay various
bills. > Access control of some buildings.• In healthcare.
