Patent number: 8998098Abstract: 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 (10a) which is free. The free edge (10a) 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.Type: GrantFiled: September 6, 2012Date of Patent: April 7, 2015Assignee: Oberthur TechnologiesInventors: Olivier Bosquet, Mickael Huet
