1 Scope
This Part of GB/T 16649 specifies the physical characteristics of integrated circuit(s) cards with contacts. It applies to identification cards of the ID-1 card type which may include embossing and/or a magnetic stripe (as specified in ISO/IEC 7811).
This Part of GB/T 16649 applies to cards which have a physical interface with electrical contacts. It does not, however, define the nature, number and position of the integrated circuits in the cards.
Note: Other types of IC cards, formats or interfaces may be developed in the future which will call for additions to be made to this Part or will result in the need for other National Standards to be prepared.
