Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) and IEC (the International Electrotechnical
Commission) form the specialized system for worldwide standardization. National bodies that are
members of ISO or IEC participate in the development of International Standards through technical
committees established by the respective organization to deal with particular fields of technical
activity. ISO and IEC technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO and IEC, also take part in the
work. In the field of information technology, ISO and IEC have established a joint technical committee,
ISO/IEC JTC 1.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for
the different types of document should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject
of patent rights. ISO and IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent
rights. Details of any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the
Introduction and/or on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.

assessment, as well as information about ISO’s adherence to the WTO principles in the Technical
Barriers to Trade (TBT) see the following URL: Foreword - Supplementary information

Physical characteristics and test methods for cards with
devices
1 Scope
This part of ISO/IEC 18328 defines physical characteristics and test methods for cards with devices,
including but not limited to power supplying devices, displays, sensors, microphones, loudspeakers,
buttons or keypads. This part of ISO/IEC 18328 also covers aspects of coexistence of technologies of
devices on the card and other machine readable card technologies.
Additional requirements related to biometric capture devices are defined in ISO/IEC 17839-2. Such
requirements may be applied in addition to the ones defined in this part of ISO/IEC 18328.

5 Requirements
5.1 General requirements
5.1.1 Integrated circuit cards (ICCs)
ICCs with integrated devices shall comply with the requirements defined for ID-1 cards as specified in
ISO/IEC 7810, in particular regarding the following:
— card dimensions and tolerances;
— bending stiffness;
— peel strength;
— overall card warpage;
— card dimensional stability and warpage with temperature and humidity;
— resistance to chemicals;
— opacity.
Guidance about the co-existence of different technologies on such cards is given in Annex B. A
description of different display and input element technologies is provided in Annex C.
5.1.2 ICCs with contacts
ICCs with contacts shall in addition meet the requirements specified in ISO/IEC 7816-1 regarding
the following:
— mechanical strength;
— electrical resistance of contacts;
— electromagnetic interference.
5.1.3 Contactless ICCs
Contactless ICCs shall in addition meet the requirement specified in ISO/IEC 14443-1 regarding the
antenna location.

5.2 Requirements for ICCs containing displays
5.2.1 General requirements
The following requirements apply to ICCs containing electronic displays.
NOTE 1 Today, there is no stable state-of-the-art regarding the technology of card displays or the correlation
between legibility of displays and their functional performance. The requirements described in this part of
ISO/IEC 18328 should be considered as preliminary. The detailed requirements for ICCs containing electronic
displays depend on the specific use-case.
ICCs containing electronic displays meet the test requirements if the optical contrast is not less than a
defined percentage of the optical contrast immediately before the test, as specified by the application.
NOTE 2 Readability and contrast: An observer’s ability to perceive the information from an electronic display
depends on two major factors. These are (a) size and font of the displayed information in relationship to the
viewing position and (b) the optical contrast of the displayed information to the surrounding environment.
Optical contrast is the comparison of the brightness or sterance of the display to the brightness of the surrounding
environment. High readability results by optimizing specific contrast ratios.
5.2.2 Requirements for matrix displays
In addition to the test requirements in 5.2.1, for ICCs with matrix displays, it is required that not less
than a defined percentage of all pixels remain functional after the test, as specified by the application.
5.2.3 Requirements for segmented displays
In addition to the test requirements in 5.2.1, for ICCs with segmented displays, no segment failure (dead
segment) is allowed, i.e. after the test all segments should be working in both directions from white to
black and from black to white.
— Dead spots in zone 1 (i.e. outside the active display area) can be accepted.
— Dead spots in zone 2 (i.e. within the active display area) can be accepted if their size and number are
lower than values specified by the application.
5.3 Requirements for cards containing biometric capture devices
ICCs that embed a biometric capture device may be required to conform to requirements in
ISO/IEC 17839-2, in addition to the mandatory requirements of this part of ISO/IEC 18328. Annex A
gives an example of an alternative card size.

Annex A
(informative)
ID-T size card
A.1 General
ID-T size cards are the same length and width as a normal ID-1 size card but are thicker.
The additional thickness is required for an interim period of time to accommodate electronic card
components used for biometric capture devices. This card format is intended to accommodate certain
restrictions of current manufacturing technology. The need for this Annex will be reviewed as part of
the next revision of this part of ISO/IEC 18328.
ID-T size cards are not intended for use with any type of insertion reader typically used with an ID-1 size
card such as for magnetic stripe or ICC contact readers. This Annex specifies physical characteristics
for a thicker card if it is used.
A.2 Conformance
ID-T size cards are made from similar materials as ID-1 size cards and meet all requirements given in
ISO/IEC 7810 for ID-1 size cards except as noted in this Annex.
NOTE Dynamic bending stress and dynamic torsional stress in ISO/IEC 7810 apply only to ID-1 size cards.
A.3 Terms and definitions
A.3.1
ID-T
nominally 85,60 mm (3,370 in) wide by 53,98 mm (2,125 in) high by 2,5 mm (0,098 in) thick
A.4 Dimensions
— Dimensions a, b and c (see Figure A.1) shall be as defined for an ID-1 size card.
— Dimension d shall be 2,5 ± 0,2 mm.
— Dimension e (optional radius all around the perimeter of the card).
NOTE The addition of an optional 0,3 ± 0,1 mm radius, e, is recommended. Adding such a radius will make it
easier to slide this thicker card into a wallet card holder.
