<p>A card reader includes a housing having a top wall, an open end defining a card-receiving slot (40), and an array of terminals (50). The card-receiving slot (40) is spaced upwardly a selected distance from a board-mounting face (22) of the housing (12). The top wall includes an opening (18) therethrough in communication with the card-receiving slot (40) at a position remote from the terminals (50), the opening (18) being aligned with a corresponding opening in the housing (12) beneath the card-receiving slot (40). Portions of a circuit board (70) beneath the housing are exposed for access from above the card reader after mounting to the board (70), when a card (60) is not disposed in the card-receiving slot (40), thereby permitting low profile electronic components (76) to be mounted on the exposed portions of the board or tested or removed therefrom. <IMAGE></p> |
