Abstract
The smart card has a semiconductor chip combined with a leadframe. The smart card is rendered operationally and functionally reliable with regard to bending and tensile stresses, in that the connecting tabs which form the electrical contacts of the leadframe are extended to the outside and embedded in the plastic card body. Beads are incorporated for the additional relief of mechanical stresses.
