Smart Card & IC Card & RFID Card

Smart Card is divided into:
Contact smart card: Chip card, Integrated circuit card (IC Card), is any pocket-sized card with embedded integrated circuits, uses electrical connectors to transmit data.
Contactless smart card: RFID Card, is any pocket-sized card with embedded integrated circuits which can process and store data, and communicate with a terminal via radio waves, use radio to transmit data.
Contact smart cards have a contact area of approximately 1 square centimetre (0.16 sq in), comprising several gold-plated contact pads. These pad provide electrical connectivity when inserted into a reader. Cards do not contain batteries, power is supplied by the card reader.
A contactless smart card is a card in which the chip communicates with the card reader through an induction technology similar to that of an RFID (at data rates of 106 to 848 kbit/s). These cards require only close proximity to an antenna to complete a transaction. They are often used when transactions must be processed quickly or hands-free, such as on mass transit systems, where a smart card can be used without even removing it from a wallet. The standard for contactless smart card communications is ISO/IEC 14443. It defines two types of contactless cards ("A" and "B") and allows for communications at distances up to 10 cm. There had been proposals for ISO/IEC 14443 types C, D, E, F and G that have been rejected by the International Organization for Standardization. An alternative standard for contactless smart cards is ISO/IEC 15693, which allows communications at distances up to 50 cm.
