Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A microcircuit card ( 2 ) and held within a carrier card ( 3 ) is generally shown as 1 in FIG. 1 . The microcircuit card ( 2 ) is bounded on all edges except one edge ( 10 a ) which is free. The free edge ( 10 a ) is substantially in alignment with an edge ( 7 ) of a carrier card ( 3 ). The microcircuit card and carrier card are held together by connections ( 12 ), which can be broken to release the microcircuit card ( 20 ) so it can be used independently of the carrier card. The position of the microcircuit card allows it to be easily and cleanly removed from the carrier card.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. An assembly comprising: a microcircuit card and a carrier card, said microcircuit card being delineated from a surface forming said carrier card and being releasably attached to said carrier card by lines of weakness, wherein the microcircuit card is positioned such that: a first edge of said microcircuit card is positioned to be at a first edge of said carrier card, there are gaps between the first edge of the microcircuit card and the first edge…
