<p>Provided is a magnetic head that can prevent illegally obtaining magnetic information of a card, and furthermore can be downsized. A magnetic head 3 includes: a core; a coil wound on the core; terminals 5 to which ends of the coil are connected; a substrate 8 on which mounted are a demodulating electronic component 6 for demodulating an analog output signal output from the terminals 5 to create a digital demodulated signal, and an encrypting electronic component 7 for encrypting the demodulated signal to create an encrypted signal; a cable 9 for electrically connecting the demodulating electronic component 6 and the terminals 5; and a case body 11 for storing the core, the coil, the terminals 5, and the cable 9. The demodulating electronic component 6 is mounted on one side 8a of the substrate 8, and in the meantime, the encrypting electronic component 7 is mounted on the other side 8b of the substrate 8. The substrate 8 is fixed to the case body 11 in such a way that the demodulating electronic component 6 is placed inside the case body 11 while the encrypting electronic component 7 is placed outside the case body 11.</p> |
