Chipcard standards (7816, 14443)

 
INFO & KNOWLEGDE
 
ISO/IEC 7816 consists of several parts and specifies smart cards, the data transmission between card and external environment - the usage of these cards. As result the card provides informations, like the output of a computation or stored data, or it modifies the content of its memory or event-log.

5 parts are specific for contact cards, 3 of them specify the electrical characteristics. The other parts are independent from the physical interface and can be applied to all cards, contact and contactless cards.


7816 for contact smart cards

ISO/IEC 7816-1 (1998) defines the physical characteristics of contact cards.
ISO/IEC 7816-2 (1999) specifies dimensions and position of the contacts.
ISO/IEC 7816-3 (1997) specifies the electrical characteristics and the transmission protocols. A change in the year 2002 describes the characteristics for smart cards which work with 5V, 3V and 1.8 V.
ISO/IEC 7816-10 (1999) specifies the electrical characteristics and "Answer to Reset" for synchronous cards.
ISO/IEC 7816-12 specfies the electrical characteristics and processes for USB cards


ISO/IEC 7816-4 (1995) defines interindustrial commands. An addendum in 1997 describes the effect of secure messageing to the apdu structures.
ISO/IEC 7816-5 (1994/96)
ISO/IEC 7816-6 (1996/98)
ISO/IEC 7816-7 (1999) defines interindustrial commands for structured card query language SCQL.
ISO/IEC 7816-8 (1999) defines interindustrial security commands.
ISO/IEC 7816-9 (2000) defines additional interindustrial commands and security attributes.
ISO/IEC 7816-11 specifies the user verification with biometrics
ISO/IEC 7816-15 specifies "Cryptographic Information Application"


ISO 10536

ISO 10536 consists of 4 parts and describes the composition and operation of CICC - Close Coupling Integrated Chip Cards.
- Part 1: Physical characteristics (like for contact chip cards)
- Part 2: Dimensions and locations of coupling areas (4 inductive and 4 capacitive fields)
- Part 3: Electronic signals and reset procedures
- Part 4: Answer to reset and transmission protocols


ISO 14443

ISO 14443 consists also of 4 parts and describes, composition, function and operation with PICC - proximity integrated circuit cards.
- Part 1: Physical characteristics (dimensions like ISO 7810, additional strain requirements)
- Part 2: Radio Frequency power and signal interface (13,56 MHz, coil, type A and type B variants for data transmission, a reader has to support both variants)
- Part 3: Initialisation and anticollision
- Part 4: Transmission protocols


ISO 15693

ISO 15693 consists of 3 parts and describes VICC, where cheap memory chips with simple state machines are used
- Part 1: Physical Characteristics
- Part 2: Air interface and initialization
- Part 3: Anti-Collision and transmission protocol
