Description

Hybrid CD Card {Hybride CD Card}

The present invention relates to a composite CD card, and more specifically, a hybrid CD that allows the IC card for mounting a smart card to be embedded in a CD card to realize the functions of a conventional card type ROM and a smart card. It's about the card.

In general, CD cards or compact discs are compact discs that are roughly the size of a rectangular credit card, business card, or identification card, compared to traditional 120mm and 80mm round CDs. According to the general spread of multimedia, for example, it is equipped with data such as cyber trading installation program of securities company, music video, product catalogue, company brochure, various demo programs, etc. .

In addition, a conventional smart card is made of plastic about the size of a credit card, and has a microchip (IC chip) that can store and process information. It is a conventional magnetic tape type credit card or telephone card. It contains more information than its counterpart. These smart cards are also commonly referred to as IC cards, and serve as certificate storage, digital signature generation, electronic money, and credit cards by the built-in microprocessor, encrypting data, generating signatures, and forgery and forgery. It is attracting much attention by enabling value transfer.

In addition, smart cards are divided into contact and contactless types according to the interface with the outside, which is suitable for applications such as transaction authentication and electronic signatures, which deal with a relatively large amount of data, mainly focusing on security. Suitable for restricted traffic, distribution and other applications. Combi smart cards are also being tried to control these two interfaces from a single microprocessor. An example of a contactless smart card is a radio frequency (RF) transportation card, which is often used for buses and subways. The RF card employs an RF module implemented with an antenna in the above-described IC chip, and enables reading and writing of information without physical contact between the card and the terminal.

In addition, smart cards are classified into prepaid cards and credit payment cards according to the payment method. Prepaid cards receive payment in advance and input a substantial amount into smart cards, and then pay for goods or services. Is used as a transportation card, Internet e-commerce card, gas station card, etc. In addition, credit card payments can be purchased within the credit limit of a certain credit purchase limit like a traditional credit card, and secure payment card against the risks of card loss and card number exposure in traditional credit cards. It is being used as

As mentioned above, CD cards and smart cards are very useful in the daily life of modern people by providing certain conveniences to the extent that they are allowed, but on the other hand, they are each limited to a single use, There is a limit to some extent to satisfy all the needs of users, which are more diverse now or in the future.

For example, a CD card stores promotional data in a CD-ROM, which can be distributed to consumers in a more convenient way, can hold a relatively large amount of information, and is portable, which is more innovative than traditional publicity methods. In the end, this is not only a simple means of promotion, but also a storage capacity of information is smaller than that of a traditional circular CD. There is a limit that is limited and simple.

In addition, the smart card has more than 100 times the information storage capacity of the magnetic strip for magnetic card, and the use of credit card, transportation card, medical card, electronic notebook, internet e-commerce, fueling card is very versatile and convenient, Although it can be promoted as a current or future card, for example, credit card terms, how to use, merchant information, affiliate internet access site information, etc. There is a limit that can not be mounted.

The present invention has been devised in view of the above-mentioned points, and the present invention is a hybrid type that can provide the advantages of a CD-ROM and a smart card by mounting an IC chip for mounting a smart card on a card-type CD-ROM. The purpose is to provide a CD card.

In order to achieve the above object, the composite CD card according to the present invention is a card type CD ROM made of a rectangular transparent plastic substrate according to the size of a credit card or business card, and combines the functions of a card type CD ROM and a smart card. In order to implement, the smart card mounting IC chip is mounted on the remaining data non-recording area except for the data recording area formed in a predetermined area radially outward from the inner ring of the substrate. The IC chip of the card stores predetermined smart card function information such as user authentication information and encryption information, and stores various user guide information corresponding to the smart card in the data recording area.
