ABSTRACT:
A reinforcement structure to protect an integrated circuit module is located within a smart card. The integrated circuit module is positioned in a cavity formed in a first surface of the smart card. The reinforcement structure, which has a modulus of elasticity higher than the modulus of elasticity of the smart card, is positioned in the same cavity over the integrated circuit module. The reinforcement structure can have various shapes. In addition, the reinforcement structure can be substantially planar and can also have flanges extending downward into the cavity. The reinforcement structure relives stress on the integrated circuit module during bending and torsion of the card.
