A dynamic transaction card that includes a transaction card having a number of layers, each of which may be interconnected to one another. For example, a dynamic transaction card may include an outer layer, a potting layer, a sensor layer that may detect and identify a card free fall and/or subsequent impact, which may trigger a microcontroller to send a mobile notification to a cardholder notifying the user that the card has been dropped, and/or may disable or deactivate the card and/or a user account associated with the card, a display layer (including, for example, LEDs, a dot matrix display, and the like), a microcontroller storing firmware, Java applets, and the like, an EMV chip, an energy storage component, one or more antenna (e.g., Bluetooth antenna, NFC antenna, and the like), a power management component, a flexible printed circuit board (PCB), a chassis, and/or a card backing layer.

Smartcard (SC) having a metal card body (MCB) which is a coupling frame (CF) with a slit (S), and a coupling loop antenna/structure (CLA, CLS) connected to termination points (TP) on each side of the slit (S) and coupled with the module antenna (MA) of a transponder chip module (TCM). A portion of the card body (CB) may be metal and another, coplanar portion of the card body may be a synthetic material which may be transparent or translucent. Currents may be collected from the interface between the two portions. The card body (CB) may have two metal layers of different materials, adhesively joined to each other using a thermosetting epoxy that converts from B-stage to C-stage during lamination.

A card device according to an aspect of the present disclosure includes: a first interface that connects the card device with a host device. The card device notifies, through the first interface, the host device of whether or not the card device includes a second interface different from the first interface.

According to one embodiment, a memory system includes a nonvolatile semiconductor memory device, controller, memory, wireless communication function section, and extension register. The controller controls the nonvolatile semiconductor memory device. The memory is serving as a work area of the controller. The wireless communication module has a wireless communication function. The extension register is provided in the memory. The controller processes a first command to read data from the extension register, and a second command to write data to the extension register. The extension register records, an information specifying the type of the wireless communication function in a specific page, and an address information indicating a region on the extension register to which the wireless communication function is assigned.

A dynamic transaction card that includes a number of layers, each of which may be interconnected to one another. For example, a dynamic transaction card may include an outer layer, a potting layer, a sensor layer, a display layer (including, for example, LEDs, a dot matrix display, and the like), a microcontroller/microprocessor storing firmware, Java applets, Java applet integration, and the like, an EMV processor, an energy storage component, one or more antenna (e.g., Bluetooth antenna, NFC antenna, and the like), a power management component, a flexible printed circuit board (PCB), a chassis, and/or a card backing layer. A display layer may include enhanced features such as the use of LED display components as a photosensor.

A card for distributing media including any one or all of music, videos and movies said card include a main card body formed of two covers that snap or nestle together about its perimeter. One or more chips are nestled internally within the main card body and are configured to transmit information. A USB male connector is configured to pivot relative to the main card body so as to operate between a retracted position and an extended position. The USB male connector is coupled to a dongle configured to pivot about an axis relative to the main card body. The USB male connector includes executable instructions to communicate with a remote third party notifying the time and location of access to stored information.

A dynamic transaction card that includes a number of layers, each of which may be interconnected to one another, is disclosed. The dynamic transaction card may include an outer layer, a potting layer, a sensor layer, a display layer (including, for example, LEDs, a dot matrix display, and the like), a microcontroller storing firmware, Java applets, Java applet integration, and the like, an EMV chip, an energy storage component, one or more antennas (e.g., Bluetooth antenna, NFC antenna, and the like), a power management component, a flexible printed circuit board (PCB), a chassis, and/or a card backing layer. The dynamic transaction card may be activated by authenticating the card user through user authentication input recognition, which may be gesture and/or voice recognition processing.

Systems and methods involving a temporary card as well as features and functionality of an associated server and/or application resident on a computing device are disclosed. In one embodiment, an exemplary system may comprise a temporary card provided to a user to conduct purchase transactions for a period of temporary use as well as a server configured to manage operation of the temporary card and execute instructions causing the server to: communicate with an app resident on a computing device associated with the user, instruct the app to generate one or more graphical user interfaces (GUIs) configured to display first interactive GUI elements with first user-selection(s) and second interactive GUI elements with second user-selection(s), and/or control the temporary card based on the first and second user-selections.

The controller controls the nonvolatile semiconductor memory device. The memory is serving as a work area of the controller. The wireless communication module has a wireless communication function. The extension register is provided in the memory. The controller processes a first command to read data from the extension register, and a second command to write data to the extension register. The extension register records, an information specifying the type of the wireless communication function in a specific page, and an address information indicating a region on the extension register to which the wireless communication function is assigned.

The invention concerns a method for producing a flexible circuit for a chip card module. The invention consists of using conductive pads located on the same face of the module as the contacts intended to establish a connection with a card reader, in order to produce an electrical connection between an antenna and an electronic chip. The connections with conductive pads are located partly inside an encapsulation area and partly outside said encapsulation area and respectively to either side of same. The invention also relates to a flexible circuit for implementing this method.
