CONSTITUTION:An IC chip 2 is mounted and fixed in a recess in a card substrate 1. A flexible printed board 5 is fixed on the side of bonding terminals 52 thereof, and electrodes of the IC chip 2 and the bonding terminals 52 of the board 5 are correspondingly connected to each other by small diameter metallic wires 3. The recess in the card substrate 1 is filled with a resin to be substantially flush with the surface of the substrate 1, thereby forming a sealing resin part 4. Of the printed board 5, the parts protruding from the sealing resin part 4 and the card substrate 1 are bent to the inside, and are firmly adhered to the surface of the sealing resin part 4, with the surfaces of terminals 51 for external connection disposed on the outer side. A cover sheet 6 is adhered to the surfaces of the card substrate 1 and the sealing resin part 4, exclusive of the printed board 5.
