Description
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein Kombinations-Chipmodul nach dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1, ein Verfahren zur Herstellung eines Kombinations-Chipmoduls nach dem Oberbe griff des Patentanspruchs 13, sowie die Verwendung derartiger Kombinations-Chipmodule in Chipkarten.The invention relates to a combination chip module according to the preamble of claim 1, a method for Production of a combination chip module according to the Oberbe handle of claim 13, and the use of such Combination chip modules in chip cards.
Chipmodule werden bei der Herstellung von Chipkarten als fer tigungstechnisch abgeschlossene Zwischenerzeugnisse produ ziert und unabhängig zu Enderzeugnissen weiter verarbeitet. Unter einem Chipmodul wird hierbei eine Anordnung verstanden, bei der auf oder in einem elektrisch isolierenden Träger eine oder mehrere integrierte Halbleiterschaltungen in Form von Chips oder integrierten Schaltkreisen angeordnet sind, die mit einem auf einer Seite oder auf beiden Seiten des Trägers vorgesehenen Leiterbahnsystem über Verwendungsanschlüsse ver bunden sind, wobei der Träger in der Regel einen flexiblen Film darstellt, auf dem der eigentliche Halbleiterchip mon tiert wird, und auf welchem sich die meist vergoldeten Kon taktflächen der Chipkarte befinden. Unter einer Kombinations-Chipkarte bzw. einem Kombinations-Chipmodul wird eine Anord nung verstanden, welche sowohl für eine kontaktlose als auch eine kontaktbehaftete Übertragung von elektrischen Signalen bzw. Daten an eine Lese-Schreibstation erlaubt, und welche zu diesem Zweck neben den für eine kontaktbehaftete Übertragung dienenden Kontaktflächen darüber hinaus mit den zur kontakt losen Übertragung von Signalen benötigten Bauelementen wie Übertragungsspulen oder Kondensatorplatten ausgestattet sind. Neben den derzeit typischen Anwendungsfeldern solcher Chip karten in der Form von Krankenversichertenkarten, Gleitzei terfassungskarten, Telefonkarten und dergleichen ergeben sich zukünftig insbesondere Anwendungen im öffentlichen Personen nahverkehr, Skilift, Freibad, usw., wo in möglichst kurzer Zeit möglichst viel Personen erfaßt werden müssen. Bei sol chen Anwendungen bietet die kontaktlose Übertragung von elek trischen Signalen gegenüber der Kontaktbehafteten den Vor teil, daß gegenüber der ersteren Möglichkeit die Chipkarte nicht unbedingt in die Lese-Schreibstation eingeführt werden muß, sondern berührungslos über eine Entfernung von bis zu einigen Metern funktioniert. Die kontaktlose Signalübertra gung erfordert jedoch aufwendige Schaltungen mit Koppelele menten, die eine Signalübertragung ermöglichen, wobei sich wegen der flachen Bauform der Chipkarte am ehesten die kapa zitive und die induktive Kopplung eignen. Derzeit erfolgt bei den meisten kontaktlosen Karten die Übertragung auf indukti vem Wege, mit dem sich sowohl die Daten wie auch die Energie übertragung realisieren lassen. Hierbei sind im Kartenkörper eine oder mehrere Induktionsspulen integriert ausgebildet, die auf geeignete Weise mit der auf dem Halbleiterchip be findlichen Schaltung kontaktiert sind. Die Übertragung von elektrischen Signalen erfolgt nach dem Prinzip des lose ge koppelten Transformators, wobei die Trägerfrequenz beispiels weise im Bereich zwischen 100 und 300 kHz oder bei einigen MHz, insbesondere der Industriefrequenz von 13,56 MHz liegt. Hierfür werden Induktionsspulen mit einem gegenüber der Grundfläche des Halbleiterchips von in der Größenordnung etwa 10 mm² wesentlich größeren Spulenflächen von typischerweise etwa 30 bis 40 cm² benötigt, wobei die Induktionsspule in der Regel nur wenige Windungen aufweist und flach ausgebildet ist. Bei den derzeit auf dem Markt verfügbaren Kombinations-Chipkarten bzw. Kombinations-Chipmodulen ist es bekannt, zum einem geätzte Spulen innerhalb einer Inlettfolie, und zum An deren gewickelte Spulen innerhalb einer Inlettfolie oder ge wickelte Spulen innerhalb des Kartenkörpers vorzusehen, die durch geeignete Verbindungstechniken mit dem Chipmodul elek trisch verbunden werden müssen. Bei einer weiteren bekannten Möglichkeit zur Herstellung einer Kombinations-Chipkarte wer den die Windungen der Induktionsspule unmittelbar vom Halb leiterchip abgestützt und mit diesem verbunden.Chip modules are used as fer in the production of chip cards Completed intermediate products produc adorned and processed independently to end products. A chip module is understood to mean an arrangement in which on or in an electrically insulating carrier or several semiconductor integrated circuits in the form of Chips or integrated circuits are arranged that with one on one side or on both sides of the carrier provided interconnect system via usage connections ver are bound, the carrier usually a flexible Represents film on which the actual semiconductor chip mon tiert, and on which the mostly gold-plated Kon tact areas of the chip card.

In addition to the currently typical application fields of such chips cards in the form of health insurance cards, floating time acquisition cards, telephone cards and the like arise future applications in particular in public persons Local transport, ski lift, swimming pool, etc., where possible in the shortest possible time Time as many people as possible must be recorded. With sol Applications are the contactless transmission of elek trical signals to the contact person part that the chip card compared to the former not necessarily be inserted into the read / write station must, but contactlessly over a distance of up to a few meters works. The contactless signal transmission However, supply requires complex circuits with coupling elements elements that enable signal transmission, whereby due to the flat design of the chip card, the kapa is most likely citive and inductive coupling are suitable. Is currently taking place at most contactless cards transfer to indukti vem ways in which both the data and the energy let the transfer be realized. Here are in the card body one or more induction coils are integrated, which be in a suitable manner with that on the semiconductor chip sensitive circuit are contacted. The transfer of electrical signals are based on the principle of loose ge coupled transformer, the carrier frequency for example wise in the range between 100 and 300 kHz or with some MHz, especially the industrial frequency of 13.56 MHz. For this purpose, induction coils are compared with one Base area of the semiconductor chip of about the order of magnitude 10 mm² much larger coil areas of typically needs about 30 to 40 cm², the induction coil in the Usually has only a few turns and is flat is. With the combination chip cards currently available on the market or combination chip modules, it is known to an etched spool inside a ticking foil, and to whose wound coils within a ticking foil or ge provided coils inside the card body to provide the through suitable connection technologies with the chip module elek must be connected trically. Another known one Possibility of producing a combination chip card who the turns of the induction coil directly from the half conductor chip supported and connected to this.
