Abstract
A small electronic card with peripheral contacts includes a body, a plurality of front end contacts and a plurality of extended contacts placed along the two side edges. The plurality of extended contacts are used for increasing the data transmission bandwidth, and thus the data transmission speed, and the arrangement of the extended contacts does not affect the design of the reader, while preventing short circuit caused by pins touching incorrect contacts.
