Abstract: A device for communication with a terminal. The device comprises: a communication unit for communicating with the terminal; a biometric unit comprising a biometric sensor for sensing biometric data; contacts for connecting the device to the terminal; a first physical interface between the biometric unit and the contacts configured to enable contact communication between the biometric unit and the terminal; and a second physical interface between the communication unit and the biometric unit configured to enable contact communication between the communication unit and the biometric unit. The device is configured such that all contact communications between the terminal and the communication unit are routed through the biometric unit via the first and second physical interfaces.

Abstract: A method for generating a trusted biometric reference includes initiating a first contactless transaction, capturing a first biometric sample during the first contactless transaction, generating a first biometric probe from the first biometric sample, initiating a contact fallback event, entering a secondary identifier, if the secondary identifier confirms an authorized user, generating a first trusted biometric reference from the first biometric probe, and storing the first trusted biometric reference in a biometric template seed.

Abstract: A biometric module implemented on a single integrated circuit chip is configured to perform processing as part of a function associated with a device that performs contactless communication with a terminal. The module comprises a power-harvesting unit to induce a voltage from a wireless signal received at an antenna of the device; one or more components configured to process functions in the digital domain; one or more components configured to process functions in the analogue domain; and first and second voltage regulators each having inputs for receiving an input voltage induced by the power-harvesting unit. The first voltage regulator outputs a first voltage to the components processing functions in the analogue domain and the second voltage regulator outputs a second voltage lower than the first voltage to the components processing functions in the digital domain.
