    Abstract: A dual-interface metal hybrid smartcard comprising a plastic card body (CB); a metal slug (MS) disposed in the card body; and a booster antenna (BA) disposed in the card body. The metal slug may have a surface area which is at least 50% of a surface area of the card body, and may comprise titanium or alloys thereof. A antenna chip module (AM) having an antenna (MA) and contact pads (CP) may be disposed in an opening of the card body. The metal slug may comprise two or more separate metal slug components (MS-1, MS-2), which may overlap one another or which may be disposed at different locations in the card body (CB), without overlapping one another. The first metal slug component (MS-1) may be disposed around a peripheral portion of the card body (CB) as an “open loop” discontinuous metal frame around (external to) the booster antenna (BA). The second metal slug component (MS-2) may be disposed internal to the card antenna (CA) component of the booster antenna (BA).

    Abstract: A dual-interface smart card having a booster antenna with coupler coil in its card body, and a metallized face plate having a window opening for the antenna module. Performance may be improved by one or more of making the window opening substantially larger than the antenna module, providing perforations through the face plate, disposing ferrite material between the face plate and the booster antenna. Additionally, by one or more of modifying contact pads on the antenna module, disposing a compensating loop under the booster antenna, offsetting the antenna module with respect to the coupler coil, arranging the booster antenna as a quasi-dipole, providing the module antenna with capacitive stubs, and disposing a ferrite element in the antenna module between the module antenna and the contact pads.

    Abstract: A capacitive coupling enhanced (CCE) transponder chip module (TCM) comprises an RFID chip (CM, IC), optionally contact pads (CP), a module antenna (MA), and a coupling frame (CF), all on a common substrate or module tape (MT). The coupling frame (CF, 320A) may be in the form of a ring, having an inner edge (IE), an outer edge IE, 324) and a central opening (OP), disposed closely adjacent to and surrounding the module antenna (MA). A slit (S) may extend from the inner edge (IE) to the outer edge (OE) of the coupling frame (CF) so that the coupling frame (CF) is “open loop”. An RFID device may comprise a transponder chip module (TCM) having a module antenna (MA), a device substrate (DS), and an antenna structure (AS) disposed on the device substrate (DS) and connected with the module antenna (MA). A portion of a conductive layer (CL, 904) remaining after etching a module antenna (MA) may be segmented to have several smaller isolated conductive structures.

    Abstract: Connection bridges (CBR) for dual-interface transponder chip modules (TCM) 200 may have an area which is substantially equal to or greater than an area of a contact pad (CP) of a contact pad array (CPA). A given connection bridge may be L-shaped and may comprise (i) a first portion disposed external to the contact pad array and extending parallel to the insertion direction, and (ii) a second portion extending from an end of the first portion perpendicular to the insertion direction to within the contact pad array (CPA) such as between C1 and C5. The connection bridge may extend around a corner of the contact pad array, may be large enough to accommodate wire bonding, and may be integral with a coupling frame (CF) extending around the contact pad array. The transponder chip modules may be integrated into a smart card (SC).

    Abstract: High density metal or mineral particles, sized to be less than 10 microns, are compounded into a base plastic layer to form a compounded composite layer used to form the core layer of the card, any layer of the card or the entire card. The amount of high density particles compounded into the plastic layer is controlled so the card: (a) is at least twice as heavy as any standard PVC card; (b) can be manufactured using standard current plastic card equipment and tooling. (c) is not brittle; and (d) is electrically non-conductive whereby it is not subject to electrostatic discharge properties. The card can include RFID functionality integrated into the card body. The compounded composite layer does not interfere with the integrity of the data communication between an RFID chip packaged in an antenna module and coupled with an embedded booster antenna, and a contactless reader or terminal.

The coupling frame (CF) may be thick enough to be non-transparent to RF at frequencies of interest. A switch (SW) may be provided to connect ends of the coupling frame (CF) across the slit (S, 630). A reinforcing structure (RS) may be provided to stabilize the coupling frame (CF) and card body (CB). The transponder chip module (TCM) may comprise an antenna structure which may be a laser-etched antenna structure (LES) or a chemical-etched antenna structure (CES), and may comprise and a non-perforated contact pad (CP) arrangement. A coupling frame (CF) may be incorporated onto the module tape (MT, CCT) for a transponder chip module (TCM).
