Abstract(in English) This paper presents methods of endurance test for contactless IC cards. Assuming both the normal and incidental use of IC card, we propose four tests methods, those are bending and pressure, spot pressure, alternate bending, and impact. For spot pressure and impact tests, some testing conditions are determined based on the measured data. Using these test methods, we examined endurance for both a contact IC card and a contactless one. As IC chip for contactless IC card is covered with card material only, such as PVC or PET, the influence of an external stress on endurance of IC chip is serious problem. To solve this problem, we indicated that a use of reinforcement under IC chip improves endurance of IC chip for contactless IC card.
