Description / Abstract:
This International Standard defines the characteristics for
identification cards as defined in Clause 4 of this part of
ISO/IEC 7811 and the use of such cards for international
interchange.
This part of ISO/IEC 7811 specifies requirements for a high
coercivity magnetic stripe (including any protective overlay) on an
identification card, the encoding technique, and coded character
sets. It takes into consideration both human and machine aspects
and states minimum requirements.
Coercivity influences many of the quantities specified in this
part of ISO/IEC 7811 but is not itself specified. The main
characteristic of the high coercivity magnetic stripe is its
improved resistance to erasure. This is achieved with minimal
probability of damage to other magnetic stripes by contact while
retaining read compatibility with magnetic stripes as defined in
ISO/IEC 7811-2.
This International Standard provides criteria to which cards are
to perform. No consideration is given within this International
Standard to the amount of use, if any, experienced by the card
prior to test. Failure to conform to specified criteria is
negotiated between the involved parties.
ISO/IEC 10373-2 specifies the test procedures used to check
cards against the parameters specified in this part of ISO/IEC
7811.
NOTE Numeric values in the SI and/or Imperial
measurement system in this part of ISO/IEC 7811 might have been
rounded off and are therefore consistent with, but not exactly
equal to, each other. Either system can be used, but the two are
not to be intermixed or reconverted. The original design was made
using the Imperial measurement system.
