CLASSIFICATION OF SMART CARD AND IT'S APPLICATIONS

 

 SMART CARD

WHAT IS SMART CARD?

       A Smart card is a plastic card about the size of a credit card,with an embedded microchip that can be loaded with data, used for telephone calling,cash payments, and other applications , and then periodically refreshed for additional use.

  

                                                                                                                                                                            

1.The standard definition of smart card , or integrated circuit card, is any pocket sized card with embedded integrated circuites.
                                                   (or)
2.A smart card is a plastic card with a small ,built in microcomputer chip and integrated circuit that can store and process  a lot of data

WHY SMART CARDS? 

● Enhanced security 
● Offline transactions
● Multifunctional 
● Customization 
● Economical 
● Portable

HISTORY OF THE SMART CARD:

        In the year of 1968, two Germans namely Jurgen Dethloff and Helmet Grotrupp made the plastic to be the carrier of microchips. In the year of 1970, Dr. Kunitaka Arimura from Japan filed the foremost and exclusive patent on the concept of a smart card. In the year of 1974, Roland Moreno filed the genuine patent on the smart card. In the year of 1977, the three commercial people namely Bull, Schlumberger, and SGS Thomson started advancing the IC card.

In the year of 1979, Motorola advanced the foremost chip microcontroller for the purpose of French banking. In the year of 1982, the foremost IC card testing was done and in the year of 1992, a project began in Denmark on the nationwide prepaid card. In the year of 1999, the Federal government started the smart card identification for the federal employees.

CLASSIFICATION OF SMART CARD:

Smart cards are classified into two types and they are as follows

       ●contact vs contactless
   
        ●memory vs micro processer

1.Contact vs contactless:

                     The smart card has the integrated microprocessors and requires energy to work, along with it the smart cards have some techniques to exchange the information, receiving the information and transmitting the information. Few smart cards consist of the golden plates and contact pads at the corner of the card , this category of the smart cards are known as the contact smart cards.The plates present at the corner of the corner supply  the required amount of energy and for exchanging the information through direct electrical contact with the help of a reader.The contact  pad will not be present on few smart cards and in such cards,the connection between a reader and the card will be created through radio frequency.

2. Memory Vs microprocessor: The usual and the affordable smart cards are the memory cards and they have the non-volatile memory and the electrically erasable programmable read only memory i.e. EEPROM. As it is a non-volatile memory, if we displace the card from the reader or have issues with the power like power cut then the card saves the information.

The microprocessor cards are similar to the computers and they contain the RAM, ROM, and EPROM with the 8-bit microprocessor or the 16-bit

The Relation between sim card and smart card

      The abbreviation of the subscriber identification module i.e SIM is a smart card that is used for mobile phones to identify each mobile machine with the other.The mobile network furnisher furnishes this card and it have a special key and in the simple words,the sim card is a smart card's application that put into active the specification of GSM.

APPLICATIONS OF SMART CARD:

• Payment system
• Transportation
• Communication applications
• Retail and loyalty
• Smart networking
• National ID or Authentication
• University identifications
• financial applications

     Advantages:

        The advantages of the smart card are as follows

• Reliability
• Flexibility
• Portability
• Security
• It increases the capacity of the storing the information

Disadvantages:

The disadvantages of the smart card are as follows:

• It can be easily stolen.
• It needs to avail the similar reader technology.
• It is very costly.

Smart cards in everyday life....

                                                       

Dual interface smart cards:

●It is also called combi card.

●Has a single chip over it.

●Has both contact as well as contactless interfaces

Hybrid smart cards
