EZ-link Internals

For those of you living or working in Singapore, you'll know what the EZ-Link card is. It is a contactless smart card based on Sony's FeLiCa used mainly in public transportation. More uses are being added to it all the time.

The side I peeled off had some minor circuits as well, but it is completely destroyed by my fat fingers. I don't have a picture of those remains. :|

And, yes... it no longer works...
