1. dual-frequency RFID card profile
For the combination of the intelligent chip and magnetic stripe, or radio frequency and contactless chip or, low frequency, high frequency and ultrahigh frequency, three conditions of any two combined in one card called composite card (dual-frequency RFID card).
For example: The combination of MF1 card (or ID card) and SLE4442 card named the combination of the radio frequency card and contact card; the combination of ID card and MF1 card named the combination of the low frequency and high frequency card; the combination of MF1 card (ID card) and magnetism card (lo-co magnetic stripe or hi-co magnetic stripe), which is the combination of the radio frequency card and magnetic stripe card. These combinations will have their respective chip or coil or magnetic stripe basically, only one card is installed in one body, so called composite card.
With the smart card using more in application nowaday, and to avoid replacing old system, to meet all kinds of the special needs, to improve the efficiency of the whole system, usage of composite card is gradually increasing.
2. Common Species of dual-frequency RFID card
2.1. The composite of the smart card and magnetic stripe card
The composite of contact IC card and magnetic stripe card. For example, the composite of SLE 5542 and hico-magnetic stripe card
The composite of radio frequency card and magnetic stripe card. For example, the composite of MF 1 MIFARE Classic® 1K and loco magnetic stripe card
2.2. The composite of radio frequency card and contact IC card
The composite of low frequency card and contact IC card. For example, the composite of RFID card and SLE5542.
The composite of high frequency card and contact IC card. For example, the composite of MF1 MIFARE Classic® 1K and SLE 5542
The composite of Ultra frequency card and contact IC card. For example, the composite of GEN2 and SLE5542.
2.3. Low frequency card,high frequency card, Ultra high frequency card in any two of the three complexes, is also called dual-bank card.
The composite of low frequency card and high frequency card. For example, the composite of RFID card and MIFARE Classic® 1K.
The combination of low frequency card and Ultra high frequency card. For example, the composite of RFID card and GEN2.
The composite of high frequency card with ultra high frequency card. For example, the composite of MIFARE Classic® 1K and GEN2.
2.4. The composite of low frequency card, high frequency card and ultra high frequency card, is also called Tri-band card.
The composite of low frequency card, high frequency card with ultra high frequency card. For example, the composite of RFID card , MF 1 MIFARE Classic® 1K and GEN2.
2.5. The composite of two protocols of high-frequency card: in order to avoid interference, two chips which are in the same card shouldn't be read by one machine at the same time.
The composite of ISO 14443 A card and ISO 14443 B card. For example, the composite of MF 1 MIFARE Classic® 1K and THR1064.
The composite of ISO 14443 A card with ISO 14443 B card, for example, the composite of MF 1 MIFARE Classic® 1K with Sony chip.
The composite of ISO 14443 A and ISO 15693, for example, the composite of MF 1 MIFARE Classic® 1K and TI 2048.
The composite of ISO 14443 A and ISO 14443 F, for example, The composite of MIFARE Classic® 1K and LEGIC MIM56.
The composite of ISO 14443 B and ISO 14443 C, for example, The composite of THR1064 and Sony chip.
The composite of ISO 14443 B and ISO 15693 card, for example, The composite of THR 1064 and TI2048 card.
The composite of ISO 15693 card and ISO 14443 F card, for example, The composite of TI 2048 and LEGIC MIM256 card.
