Abstract
The invention is a data carrier comprising a carrier base structure, a non-volatile, electrically erasable and programmable memory designed to store the data, a data sending-receiving unit for receiving data from a control unit and transmitting data to a coding and/or reading station, a liquid crystal display, means for making visible on the liquid crystal display the data contained in the memory, and a power supply means having a power source arranged in the data carrier.
Claims6
A data carrier for a non-contact data communication with a coding and/or reading station of an entry, identification or control system, the coding and/or reading station controlling a passage to an area or space by checking and/or changing data of authorization of passage on the data carrier, when the data carrier is presented to the coding and/or reading station, the data carrier comprising:
- a carrier base structure;
- a non-volatile, electrically erasable and programmable memory designed to store the data of authorization of passage;
- a data sending-receiving unit for receiving data from the control system and transmitting data to the coding and/or reading station, the data sending-receiving unit comprising a sending-receiving logic writing data in the memory and reading out data from the memory;
- a liquid crystal display for displaying data;
- a means for making visible on the liquid crystal display the data stored in the memory;
- and
- a power supply system for providing power to the data carrier, the power supply system comprising a first and a second part electrically independent from each other, the first part being a power source arranged in the data carrier and connected with the liquid crystal display and the means for making visible the data on the liquid crystal display, and the second part being a non-contact power receiving element energized by a non-contact power transmitting unit of the coding and/or reading station, the second part being connected with the non-volatile memory and the data sending-receiving logic;
- wherein the data carrier base structure has the form of a disk, the liquid crystal display and the solar cell unit being arranged on a first side of the disk, and a helically arranged antenna of the data sending-receiving unit being arranged on a second side of the disk;
- and
- wherein the disk is circumferentially enclosed by a metallic ring interrupted by a slot.
