DESCRIPTION Memory Cards consist of two main parts: the plastic card, and the embedded Micromodule (which, in turn, carries the silicon chip). ■ Micromodules were developed specifically for embedding in Smartcards and Memory Cards ■ The Micromodule provides: – Support for the chip – Electrical contacts – Suitable embedding interface for gluing the module to the plastic package ■ Physical dimensions and contact positions compliant to the ISO 7816 standard ■ Micromodules delivered as a continuous Super 35 mm tape. (This differs from the standard 35 mm tape in the spacing distance between the indexing holes.)
