About this file
This is a technical specification document for Extended Use Smartcards (EASY Cards) issued by Cubic Transportation Systems for the Miami-Dade County transit system. The specification (Document Number 4200-67003, Revision E, dated November 1, 2019) establishes comprehensive physical, electrical, and operational requirements for Proximity Integrated Circuit Cards (PICC) used in automated fare collection (AFC) equipment. The cards must conform to ID-1 standard dimensions per ISO/IEC 7810:2003, utilize a 60 percent polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and 40 percent polyethylene terephthalate (PET) laminate material composition, and incorporate an integrated circuit chip with antenna for contactless read/write functionality. Key performance requirements include a minimum read/write distance of 0-5 centimeters, no fewer than 100,000 read/write cycles, bending stiffness compliance per ISO standards, and durability testing involving 5,000 bending and 5,000 torsion cycles. The cards must maintain functionality across a usage environment of -31°F to +140°F (-35°C to +60°C) and 15-95 percent relative humidity, with storage capability for up to three years at 50°F to 85°F and 25-50 percent relative humidity.
The specification mandates ISO 9000:2005 compliance for all suppliers and establishes rigorous quality control procedures including reference card qualification, First Article Testing at AQL Level II, and batch-level testing. All card suppliers must maintain comprehensive security controls, production yield records of 80 percent or better, and documentation of administration numbers for all deliverable and scrap cards retained for three years. Cards must be packaged in quantities of 500 per shrink-wrapped box with nine boxes per carton, and cartons must withstand stacking of six units high during storage without damage. Testing requirements address flammability (UL94 V-0 or better), static electricity sensitivity, X-ray and irradiation exposure, opacity (85 percent minimum light attenuation), adhesion characteristics, coefficient of friction (0.12 to 0.56), ultraviolet light resistance, and dimensional stability. All cards require printed graphics as specified on Cubic specification control drawings with non-conductive, non-abrasive, and non-magnetic ink that resists smearing or transfer during transport equipment processing.

Table 4-3. Card Curl Requirements
Media Curl Value
Parallel to long dimension (overall flatness)
The maximum perpendicular distance, measured from any point on the concave surface to the plane defined by any three corners, shall be 0.039 inch (1.00 mm).
Parallel to short dimension (transverse curl)
The maximum perpendicular distance, measured from any point on either of the concave short edges to a line defined by the two adjacent corners, shall be 0.020 inch (0.5 mm).
4.1.17 Adhesion
The adhesion characteristics of the cards shall be in accordance with reference [5]. Cubic test equipment tool
4100-35014 must be used to determine the adhesion. Using this tool, all tested cards must have a value of less than 55 angular degrees after being conditioned for 24 hours at 122 °F (50 C) and 85 percent RH
(noncondensing). The test procedure is as follows:
1. Two cards are required for the test. The cards are placed on the base platen and the top platen is then placed on top of the bottom platen with the cards between them and with the front edge of the top platen offset back by 1/8 inch so that the top platen with the card attached can slide forward during the test.
2. The assembly is then inserted into the environmental chamber at the settings noted above for 24 hours.
3. The assembly is then removed from the chamber and the handle on the tester is wound manually and slowly until the top platen slides down to touch the stop in the bottom platen.
4. When this happens, stop winding the handle and measure the angle on the scale by lining up the platen edge with the scale and note at what angle this occurred.
Alternatively 10 cards, complete with graphics and serial number, shall not adhere to each other when stacked on a flat surface for 24 hours at 122 °F (50 C) and 85 percent RH (noncondensing) with an applied normal pressure on the cards of 1 lb/in2 (70.5 g/cm2).
4.1.18 Coefficient of Friction
The cards shall be measured for friction in accordance with ASTM D1894, reference [6]. The cards shall be measured in the direction of the long axis and oriented in the same way, such that edges are coincident. The measured value for the inter-card static coefficient of friction shall fall within the specified range of 0.12 to
0.56. The following is the inspection schedule and equipment to be used:
• Reference card level test
• First Article Test—One set per first articles submitted
• Friction Tester Certified to ASTM D1894

11. PACKAGING AND DELIVERY
11.1 PACKAGING AND LABELING
The cards shall be packaged in such a manner as to inhibit pilferage, prevent damage during shipment, and facilitate storage in order to be acceptable to the purchaser. The cards shall be packaged in the quantities specified on the specification control drawing.
11.1.1 Packaging
In general, precut cards shall be packed as follows:
• The cards shall be packed in boxes.
• Each box shall be shrink wrapped.
• There shall be a total of 500 cards per box.
• The boxes shall be packed in cartons.
• There shall be nine boxes of cards per carton.
• Cartons shall be of sufficient strength to permit stacking six cartons high, without damage to the cards or the cartons, for a storage period of 3 years.
The cards shall be oriented in such manner as to assure that 500 cards can be stacked without leaning or tipping; the top card in a stack of 500 cards shall not have a pitch or roll of more than 6 degrees from the horizontal plane. (The cards are packaged sufficiently tight to prevent card-to-card movement that may damage the printed surfaces.) The following is the inspection schedule and equipment to be used:
• Reference card level test
• Batch Test—AQL Level II Sample Size 0.01
• Inspect for shrink wrap packaging
11.1.2 Labeling
The outside of the cartons shall be labeled with the name of the manufacturer, the part number and revision, the purchase order number and the production run number, and will be clearly marked to indicate storage requirements are 50 °F to 85 °F, 25 to 50 percent RH noncondensing.
The label format shall be as shown in Figure 11-1.

General Notes:
1. AQL Level II Sample Size 0.01 is the sample size used for a new supplier with a new part. After multiple receipts of a particular part from a supplier the quality control database will automatically increase or decrease the sample size based on the previous lots accepted or rejected.
2. Supplier’s equipment modules may be different from the designated equipment listed. This will be accepted if the calibration of the equipment to be used can be traced back to the same set of standards.
3. Qualification, first articles, and batch-level testing may change due to performance by a supplier.
