Control method of smart card module

Abstract

Disclosed in the invention is a control method of a smart card module. A controller controls a vertical lifting mechanism to move any vacant smart card reading-writing station of a smart card reading-writing mechanism to the position of a smart card entrance inlet; the controller controls a smart card reading-writing head opening mechanism to open a smart card reading-writing contact of the vacant smart card reading-writing station; when writing is carried out on a chip of a to-be-written smart card, the controller controls a horizontal adjusting mechanism to move, so that a smart card transmission mechanism moves out of the corresponding smart card reading-writing station and the above-mentioned steps are repeated until the corresponding smart card is written. According to the control method, during the card manufacturing process, data writing into multiple to-be-written smart cards can be realized simultaneously, thereby improving the issuing speed of the smart cards. Moreover, the module is designed in a independent mode and is mainly applied to card manufacturing equipment, thereby substantially improving the smart card issuing speed of the card manufacturing equipment; and the module also can be used for a self-service card issuing device, thereby improving the card issuing speed of the self-service card issuing device.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a smart card reading and writing technology, and more specifically, relates to a control method of a smart card module. Background technique [0002] In people's daily life and work process, all kinds of magnetic stripe cards and smart cards are often used. However, with the development of the economy, more and more problems appear in the economic life of magnetic stripe cards. Copied, less data is stored, and the magnetic stripe card data is also stored in the form of plain text. Due to the technical problems of the magnetic stripe, many criminals have taken advantage of it, causing huge losses to the people. The magnetic stripe card has also been used in economic life. It is increasingly unable to meet people's needs. Therefore, the magnetic stripe will also withdraw from the stage of history and be replaced by smart cards with high security. Smart cards have now entered each of us, such as contactless smart cards (bus cards...

Problems solved by technology

[0002] In people's daily life and work process, all kinds of magnetic stripe cards and smart cards are often used. However, with the development of the economy, more and more problems appear in the economic life of magnetic stripe cards. Copied, less data is stored, and the magnetic stripe card data is also stored in the form of plain text. Due to the technical problems of the magnetic stripe, many criminals have taken advantage of it, causing huge losses to the people. The magnetic stripe card has also been used in economic life. It is increasingly unable to meet people's needs

Therefore, the magnetic stripe will also withdraw from the stage of history and be replaced by smart cards with high security. Smart cards have now entered each of us, such as contactless smart cards (bus cards), social security cards, financial IC cards, etc. People's Bank of China It is required to stop the issuance of magnetic stripe cards in 2015. In this way, smart cards will usher in a new era, and we will enter the era of chips. Very few, and currently when issuing smart cards, it takes at least 1-2 minutes to write data to a smart card, and depending on the amount of data written, the time to write data will be longer

In the card manufacturing period of the magnetic stripe card, the data of the magnetic stripe card is written in about 3 seconds, so in the issuance of the smart card, the data writing time is long, which is the key bottleneck affecting the speed of the smart card issuance.
