摘要 |
A card reader (10), and particularly a manual insertion hybrid dip card reader, is described. The card reader (10) comprises a magnetic read head (28) for reading a magnetic stripe (62) on a card (60), and an integrated circuit interface (42) for reading terminals (64) on an integrated circuit card (60). The interface (42) is mounted on a moveable carrier (40) for moving relative to the magnetic read head (28) while the interface (42) is coupled to the card terminals (64). The carrier (40) may be biased towards an entrance of the card reader (10), and may be nearer the entrance than the magnetic read head (28). A self-service terminal including such a card reader is also described. <IMAGE> |
