TwinSet and C.ticket from ASK

TwinSet, a contactless smart card that combines HF and UHF features on the same card, has been launched by ASK. The UHF chip is for fast track access, such as tolling or parking access control, while the HF chip is for compliance with the existing equipment for building access control and a contact chip when necessary for logical access control.

TwinSet, a contactless smart card that combines HF and UHF features on the same card, has been launched by 150 ASK. The UHF chip is for fast track access, such as tolling or parking access control, while the HF chip is for compliance with the existing equipment for building access control and a contact chip when necessary for logical access control.

Meanwhile, the company has announced that its C.ticket contactless paper ticket range is now available with two new STMicroelectronics chips: the SRT512, a 512 bit ISO 14443 type B chip, and the SRI 2K, a 2Kbit version.

According to ASK, these two different memory size chips enhance C.ticket application possibilities in access control or multi-application use and offer mass transit operators using ISO14443 type B contactless smart cards new applications.
