1.1 Objective of the Specifications
This specification lists the parameters to be fulfilled by the HITAG 2 chip module
HT2 MOA3 S20 for contactless smart cards or similar transponders (as e.g. discs).
1.2 Definition of the Chip Module
A chip module is an electronically packaged chip covered with a globe top cap. The
HT2 MOA3 S20 is above all used as card module, i.e. for further lamination into contactless
smart cards according to ISO 10536.1.
So the HIT AG 2 chip module HT2 MOA3 S20 is best suited for customers that do not want t o
spend time with micro assembly and therefore start - e.g. ISO card production - with the
HITAG 2 chip module.
1.3 Use of the Modules
The HITAG 2 modules are designed to be connected to a coil and then to be further processed by
packaging into a transponder (e.g. lamination into an ISO smart card). Specific processing
information for the coil-module connection and packaging is given in the specification.
For production of contactless chip cards it is recommended to prepunch card foils to create a
recess for the chip module in the card body.
