Re: DeepSeek - Dlaczego karty SIM przestają działać bo wielu przekładaniach z telefonu do modemu ?

Tell me if SIM cards pass wear and tear test by a manufacturer ?
Yes, SIM cards are subjected to various tests by manufacturers to ensure
they can withstand normal wear and tear over their expected lifespan.
These tests are designed to simulate real-world usage conditions and
ensure the reliability and durability of the SIM cards. Here are some of
the key tests that SIM cards typically undergo:
1. Insertion and Removal Tests:
    Purpose: To simulate the repeated insertion and removal of the SIM
card from a device.
    Method: The SIM card is inserted and removed from a test device
thousands of times to ensure that the contacts remain functional and
that the card does not physically degrade.
2. Durability Tests:
    Purpose: To assess the physical durability of the SIM card.
    Method: The card is subjected to bending, twisting, and other forms
of mechanical stress to ensure it can withstand physical handling
without breaking or losing functionality.
3. Environmental Tests:
    Purpose: To evaluate the SIM card's performance under various
environmental conditions.
    Method: The card is exposed to extreme temperatures, humidity, and
other environmental factors to ensure it can operate reliably in
different climates and conditions.
4. Electrical Contact Tests:
    Purpose: To verify the integrity and reliability of the electrical
contacts.
    Method: The electrical contacts are tested for resistance,
conductivity, and durability to ensure they maintain a good connection
over many uses.
5. Abrasion Tests:
    Purpose: To test the wear resistance of the metal contacts.
    Method: The contacts are subjected to repeated rubbing or abrasion
to simulate the wear that occurs during normal use.
6. Chemical Resistance Tests:
    Purpose: To ensure the SIM card can resist corrosion from exposure
to various chemicals.
    Method: The card is exposed to substances like sweat, oils, and
other common contaminants to test its resistance to corrosion and
chemical damage.
7. Longevity Tests:
    Purpose: To assess the long-term reliability of the SIM card.
    Method: The card is subjected to accelerated aging tests to simulate
years of use in a shorter period, ensuring it remains functional over
its expected lifespan.
Standards and Certifications:
SIM card manufacturers often adhere to industry standards and
certifications, such as those set by the International Organization for
Standardization (ISO) and the European Telecommunications Standards
Institute (ETSI). These standards ensure that SIM cards meet specific
criteria for durability, performance, and reliability.
Conclusion:
While SIM cards are designed to pass rigorous wear and tear tests, their
actual lifespan can still be influenced by how they are handled and the
conditions they are exposed to. Proper care and handling can help extend
the life of a SIM card beyond its tested limits. If a SIM card does
fail, it is usually due to extreme conditions or mishandling that go
beyond the scope of standard tests.
