Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent shear, peeling, etc., of a connector from a frame from occurrence even though the title IC card is shocked in case of falling or the like by a method wherein the frame and a housing of the connector are integrally constructed. CONSTITUTION:In an IC card formed by putting a printed wiring board module 14 in which a semiconductor IC or the like are mounted on the printed board together with a frame 10 and a connector 11 between metal plates 13 from its front and rear, the frame 10 and a housing 11a of the connector 11 are integrally constructed. For the integral structure 12, a contact piece of the connector 11 is planted on the housing part 11a of the connector 11, and the printed wiring board module 14 is housed in the frame 10 part. Its terminal is soldered to the contact piece of the connector 11 part and further metallic nameplates 13 are stuck to the front and rear of the frame 10 part. Therefore, though impact on falling or the like is applied, the connector 11 part is never moved from the frame 10 part.
