More Information
Summary:The card (2) has a body element (4) i.e. inlay, that comprises a contact module (6) including an electronic chip. A refillable energy storage device (10) e.g. capacitor, is connected electrically to an electronic circuit for electrically feeding an electronic circuit. A photovoltaic sensor (12) extends partially on a face of the body element of the card. The photovoltaic sensor is electrically connected to the energy storage device so as to recharge the energy storage device. The photovoltaic sensor is provided partially transparent for visible light. An independent claim is also included for a method for assembly of a multifunction smart card.
