A data input device intended to be affixed to a capacitive touch screen of a terminal includes: a substantially parallelepipedal plate including a lower surface, which is substantially planar, for affixing the device to the touch screen, and an upper surface including an array of input zones that form a keyboard and are configured to enable a finger of a user to be detected by the touch screen when the device is affixed thereto; and at least two contact pads, which are electrically conductive and arranged on the lower surface, and each electrically connected to means for discharging, towards the outside of the touch screen, electric charges concentrated at the contact pads when the device is affixed to and held on the touch screen.

A security element intended to be electrically connected to an electronic card. The security element includes: a metal portion, called a dome; a conductive assembly including conductive tracks which are not connected to each other including an outer track and a central track, each having a conductive tab intended to connect them to the electronic card; and a non-conductive support having lumens via which the conductive tabs extend from the conductive tracks to the electronic card. The ends of the conductive tabs are intended to be in contact with the electronic card and do not extend beyond the non-conductive assembly such that the connections between the tracks and the electronic card are located under a lower face of the non-conductive assembly.

A magnetic card reader comprising a groove for shifting of a magnetic card and a magnetic read head mounted on a first printed-circuit board so as to enable reading of a magnetic stripe of the magnetic card. The magnetic read head has a tunnel magnetoresistance sensor called a TMR magnetic sensor positioned in a recess of a side wall of the groove.
