Abstract

A smart card includes: a plastic body, a module integral with the body and including a support bearing external electric connection pads, at least one electronic chip borne by the support and having one side called active surface bearing internal electric connection pads, and runs electrically connecting the external and internal electric connection pads, respectively. The invention is characterized in that at least one of the runs includes a conductor strip which is configured and arranged so as to project above the active surface while concealing at least a substantial part with at least one large-sized portion and has at least one small-sized portion adapted to involve easy disconnection by rupture upon displacement of the strip or elimination of all or part of the strip relative to the active surface.
