Differences and Areas of Application

Memory Chip Cards

A memory chip has the advantages of being able to record more than just one ID. The EEPROM storage of these chips can hold – depending on the type – between 256 and 64 kByte of alphanumeric data. Thus, texts with around 65,500 characters can be stored directly on one card without having to deposit this information in another system, database, or cloud. The data are only available to the person in possession of the card. In general, memory chips do not offer a security logic of their own. However, some chip types provide a simple write protection and are thus suitable for simple bonus and prepaid solutions (e.g. the SLE 5542).

SmartCards or Processor Chip Cards

Processor chips have a very complex structure and therefore differ from the ordinary memory chips. They are equipped with a microprocessor, working memory (RAM) and fixed memory (EEPROM) with its own operating system. Thus, crypto-processor chips are capable of processing, securely encrypting data in applications and making them available for different kinds of purposes. In order to be able to choose the correct processor you need to know the required operating system. We are happy to advise you and supply you with samples.
