National bodies that are members of ISO or IEC parti

10、cipate 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, governmenta

11、l 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. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.

12、The main task of the joint technical committee is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the joint technical committee are circulated to national bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the national bodie

13、s casting a vote. 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. ISO/IEC 15457-1 was prepared by Joint Technical Committee ISO/IEC JTC 1, In

14、formation technology, Subcommittee SC 17, Cards and personal identification. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO/IEC 15457-1:2001), which has been technically revised. ISO/IEC 15457 consists of the following parts, under the general title Identification cards Thin flexibl

15、e cards: Part 1: Physical characteristics Part 2: Magnetic recording technique Part 3: Test methods BS ISO/IEC 15457-1:20081 Identification cards Thin flexible cards Part 1: Physical characteristics 1 Scope Thin flexible cards (TFC), the subject of ISO/IEC 15457, are used to automate the controls fo

16、r access to goods or services such as mass transit, highway toll systems, car parks, vouchers, stored value, etc. For these applications, data can be written and/or read by machines using various recording techniques such as magnetic stripe, optical character recognition (OCR), bar code, contactless

17、, etc. This part of ISO/IEC 15457 specifies the physical characteristics of thin flexible cards at two points in the card life cycle: 1. at the point of loading into the card issuing equipment; 2. at the point of issue to the public. It takes into consideration both human and machine aspects and sta

18、tes the minimum requirements. The principal card sizes are identified and the characteristics and dimensions are specified. Guidance concerning the storage and use of cards under various environmental conditions is given. NOTE ID-1 cards, specified in ISO/IEC 7810, do not come within this scope. 2 N

30、SO/IEC 15457-1 that is equipped for contactless applications 4 General characteristics 4.1 Introduction Three card formats are recognized, and classified as follows to correspond with other existing schemes of classification: TFC.0, size 66 mm x 30 mm; TFC.1, size 85 mm x 54 mm normal Thickness (see

31、 Table 1); Special TFC.1, size 85 mm x 54 mm with increased thickness (see Table 1); TFC.5, size 187 mm or 203 mm x 83 mm. BS ISO/IEC 15457-1:20084 For each format of card, the geometrical and topographical characteristics are specified separately in the relevant clause of this part of the standard.

32、 The remaining physical characteristics, which are common to all sizes, are specified in this clause. Magnetic stripe and track characteristics are specified in ISO/IEC 15457-2. Contactless characteristics are specified in ISO/IEC 10536, ISO/IEC 14443 or ISO/IEC 15693. All clauses in all parts of IS

33、O/IEC 15457 apply to finished cards or to the reels/packs from which such cards are taken. Certain clauses however concern the characteristics of the card throughout its life. As a matter of convenience and practicality, certain tests can be carried out on unfinished cards where it can be demonstrat

34、ed that no significant change in that characteristic can arise during subsequent processing. 4.2 Materials Materials for TFCs of various thicknesses are defined in Annexes A, B and C, as shown in Table 1. Table 1 Permitted materials v TFC size Permitted materials TFC.0 1TFC.1 Special TFC.1 TFC.5 Pap

36、ron material from Annex A. 4.3 Finishing Thin flexible cards are finished in a variety of ways, in accordance with the requirements of the system in which they are to be used. They may be printed or pre-printed except in areas used by recording techniques and machine functions (e.g. magnetic stripes

37、, positioning marks, where used); equipped for one or more recording techniques (e.g. magnetic stripes, optical bar codes, contactless). Thin flexible cards shall not be embossed. Regardless of any of these finishing processes, the finished cards shall continue to conform to the requirements of this

38、 standard. 4.4 Quality of TFC products All cards, however presented, shall be generally free from minor defects which could interfere with the performance of TFCs or which detract from their visual appearance, such as joins, excessive dust, cutting debris, folds, tears, creases and thick spots. 1Not

39、e that TFC.0 materials are not necessarily the same as TFC.1 materials of the same thickness. BS ISO/IEC 15457-1:20085 Due to characteristics of product, stripe of contactless cards when presented in reel or in fan-fold can have join defined in section 8.4. 4.5 Reference edges Any specification for

40、a thin flexible card conforming to this standard shall nominate a reference face (the front) and two reference edges, having the relationship shown in Figure 1, such that all features of the finished card can be located within the same frame of reference. FrontFigure 1 Relationship between card fron

41、t and reference edges It is preferred that the front of the card should be that which is designated to carry the major printed identification information (e.g. system logo or name) and that human readable information on the front shall be upright when the card is held with one of the two reference e

42、dges at the top. Once identified, these same reference edges shall be used exclusively and consistently when locating all features specified in this and the other applicable parts of ISO/IEC 15457. 4.6 Card life 4.6.1 Before issue Cards stored in their original packing, under conditions specified in

43、 4.7.2, shall remain in conformance with this standard for at least be one year. Cards stored in operational devices (e.g. issuing machines), under the conditions specified in 4.7.3, shall remain in conformance with this standard for at least two months. 4.6.2 After issue Finished cards stored under

44、 the conditions specified in 4.7.2, without further use, shall remain in conformance with this standard at least one year. NOTE Paper materials specified in Annex A may be expected to withstand up to 50 transaction cycles, composite materials specified in Annex B may be expected to withstand up to 5

45、00 transaction cycles; plastic materials specified in Annex C may be expected to withstand up to 2 500 transaction cycles. The actual lifetimes achieved will of course be affected by many external factors. Cards shall resist deterioration from exposure to light and other environmental factors encoun

46、tered in normal use. Where abnormally demanding conditions of use are likely to affect life expectancy, these shall be taken into account when selecting suitable card materials and methods of manufacture. 4.7 Environmental conditions 4.7.1 Testing environment Each of the characteristics specified in

47、 this standard shall be measured under the environmental conditions specified in ISO/IEC 15457-3. For most characteristics, these conditions are 23 C and 50 % relative humidity. BS ISO/IEC 15457-1:20086 NOTE Under different conditions, certain characteristics will change significantly, including dim

48、ensions (width, height, thickness), weight, flatness and many of the physical parameters listed in Tables A.1, B.1 and C.1. At the extremes of the operating environment (see 4.7.3), these changes can be substantial, and should be taken into account in the design of TFC handling devices. 4.7.2 Storag

49、e environment and packaging Thin flexible cards shall be stored under the conditions specified in Table 2. Table 2 Storage conditions Card type Temperature C Relative humidity % Regular cards 0 to 50 30 to 65 Thermal cards 0 to 40 30 to 65 The purpose of the packaging is to protect cards from physical damage and to reduce the rate of humidity variation. As a consequence: cards shall be kep
