Abstract
A smart card inlay comprising an inductive antenna and a DC-DC converter. The inductive antenna is configured to (i) communicate wirelessly with a card terminal, and (ii) power card circuitry via inductive coupling to the card terminal. The DC-DC converter has an input coupled to the inductive antenna and an output connectable to card circuitry. The DC-DC converter is configured to receive an input power signal from the inductive antenna and convert that input power signal to an output power signal to send to the card circuitry, the output power signal matching the operating current and/or operating voltage of the card circuitry.
