Introduction

Increasing number form factors due to contactless technologies

E.g. token, minicards

Integration of Electrical Functional Components Battery, Display, Solar Power Unit, Switch,

Sensors (e.g. Biometric) etc. Project driven Customizing Standard products are being defined Low Volume and High Costs (decreasing)


Markets and ApplicationFields of

MULTICOMPONENT CARD

MULTI MEDIA(huge memory, sound…)

AUTHENTICATION(RFID long range, sensors…)

ACTIVESECURITY (Tamper proof )

Physical (Radiation,°C…)

TRACABILITY, Medicine

DEFENSE

ACCESSCONTROL

(Biometric, password)

LOYALTY, E-purse

(Balance, prepaid ) Cosmetic/Packaging (Sound, Physical measurement…)


Markets and Applications

Higher level of trust User friendly interface Make the card a full-fledged secure,

autonomous computer

+=


Markets and ApplicationGovernmental projects

Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (FFIEC) requires dual factor authentication for electronic financial transactions

Government Homeland Security Presidential Directive

(HSPD) 12

FFIEC, “Authentication in an Internet Banking Environment,” Oct 12, 2005


Markets and ApplicationEnd user considerations

Smart cards do not yet meet all users’ expectations efficiently enough to break barriers related to end user perception. The demand trends towards for:

Multi-application cards

Higher levels of TRUST (security and

control over data privacy)

And more user friendly interfaces


Markets and ApplicationEnd user considerations

« SEE WHAT I DO» whenever / wherever I want:

the balance of the e-purse, to select an option e.g. ticket from the

transport ticketing application, or to verify the personal data stored in owners

health card, loyalty card or ID card application.

Off-line and contactless personal information to receive.

Status of ComponentsDisplay

DISPLAY: Various manufacturer are promoting their finished,

available products: CITALA, SMARTDISPLAYER, SiPix, PHILIPS,

ALIEN, MICROD, AVESO, SOFTPIXEL, E-ink, Gyricon, Kent Displays etc.

Display batches are varying in incoming control. Very low capability to produce in volume, planning,

quality Risk level is very high

Status of ComponentsKeypad / Switch

Technology is widely available Various solutions employed

Metal domes Silicone pad with conductive element Anisotropic switch materials (e.g. piezzo

effect) Card material is part of the switching

element


Status of ComponentsBattery primary/secondary

BATTERY Supplier 2 reliable volume supplier in the world. 1

In Europe (VARTA) In US (SOLICORE).

The others are still under development.(Panasonic, Stone, SAFT, NTK, Excelatron etc.)

Qualifications are launched. Batch variations must be solved.

Risk level is moderate to high


Status of ComponentsAntenna / Conductive path

Various technologies are employed Printing of conductive paste Etching of Aluminium or Copper Wire embedding technologies

Interconnection to the components has to be reliable

Welding Gluing Elastic conductive materials


Status of ComponentsLED - Light Emitting Diodes

Available commercial product Mini-flashlight with customizable LED colours also into shaped cards and mini cards Battery long-lasting (> lifetime) Environmentally safe to throw away

Diodes have low power consumption and are available in many colours

Small chips easy to be connected on board


Status of ComponentsSensors - Biometric Sensor

Various sensor cards have been developed and are employed in the field.

UV, humidity, temperature, chemical OFET’s Main market is pharma for consumer

products No/low activities to incorporate biometric (e.g.

fingerprint) sensor into cards


Status of ComponentsSolar Power Unit

Inverse technology to the display technology

No development activities for the application on

cards

Lack of application


Zur Anzeige wird der QuickTime™ Dekompressor „TIFF (Unkomprimiert)“

benötigt.

Status of ComponentsData Storage / Computing

Up to 1 Gigabyte realised on card SIM cards are the driver for the

development of high memory modules Cards with high memory and USB

interface introduced


Status of ApplicationsS-P-S - Display Card Technology

ID-1 display card production set up for volume

Bistable display Lack of component availability

in industrial scale (i.e. not just for sampling)
