A smart card is an electronic device used to access and manipulate the data stored in it. It is a physical card containing an embedded memory or a microcontroller in a contact pad, which can be either a simple memory circuit or a microprocessor with memory. The smart card is generally connected to a host controller based on RF communication technology through a card reader. It offers enhanced reusability, secure transaction, and storage of a large amount of data. As a result, smart cards encourage smart payment mode and supplement secure payment transactions in various banking, financial, healthcare, and government sectors.
