Types of Smart Cards

There are three main types of smart cards: Contact Smart Cards, Contactless Smart Cards, and Dual-Interface Smart Cards. Contact Smart Cards require physical insertion into a reader, while Contactless Smart Cards use RFID or NFC technology for wireless communication. Dual-Interface Smart Cards support both contact and contactless technology.

Memory and Processing

Smart cards have varying levels of memory and processing power. Microprocessor Cards have a CPU, RAM, and non-volatile memory, enabling secure transactions and authentication. Memory Cards contain only non-programmable memory, suitable for basic data storage.

Security Features

Smart cards offer advanced security features, including encryption, authentication, and tamper resistance. They use encryption algorithms such as AES or RSA to protect sensitive data and support multi-factor authentication.

Storage Capacity

Smart cards have varying storage capacities, ranging from 1 KB to 256 KB or more, depending on the application. Basic Memory Cards have limited storage, while Microprocessor Cards have more extensive storage capabilities.

Power Source

Contactless smart cards draw power from the reader's electromagnetic field, while contact cards are powered through physical insertion into a reader.

Operating Range (Contactless Cards)

Contactless cards typically work within a range of 2-10 cm from the reader, depending on the frequency used.

Durability

Smart cards are designed to be durable, with a lifespan of 3-10 years, depending on usage and environmental factors. They are also resistant to water, heat, and physical damage.
