Infineon gets order for US passport security chip
German chip maker Infineon said on Monday it had won a contract from the U.S. government to supply security chips for an electronic passport system.
Infineon said the United States was planning to start issue of the passports to citizens by the end of the year, and to issue about 15 million electronic passports in the first year.
