Patent attributes
A chip module and to a chip card with a chip module which can be bent in such a way that a cross-sectional area runs along the greatest curvature of the bending line and parallel to one side of the chip module or the chip card. The module comprises contact areas within a surrounding line which are arranged in a plane perpendicular to the cross-sectional area, the surrounding line comprising a first line portion, which is adjacent the cross-sectional area, and a second line portion, which is opposite the first line portion. Furthermore, the module comprises a component, which is positioned in such a way that a first distance between the component and the first line portion is greater than a second distance between the component and the second line portion.
