PURPOSE:To allow a portion of molten resin, which is to be an IC card base, to be pressure filled and filled in micro through-holes and to easily and firmly adhere an IC module on the IC card base by a method wherein the diameter of the through-hole on a electrode plate is a little larger than that on an insulating base plate. CONSTITUTION:Micro through-holes 35 are bored from the upper face to the rear face of an IC module 20 so that they are coaxially provided on a insulating base plate 31 and electrode plates 25. The through-holes 35 provided on the insulating base plate 31 have a diameter of 0.5mm and open on the top face of the IC module 20, whereas the through-holes 35 provided on the electrode plates 25 have a diameter of 0.8mm and open on the rear of the IC module 20. Thus, the diameter of the through-hole 35 on the electrode plates 25 is a little larger than that of the through-holes 35 provided on the insulating base plate 31. During injection molding, molten resin to be an IC card base 11 is compressed and filled into the micro through-holes 35.

[Effects of the Invention] The IC module according to the present invention is provided with a minute through hole that opens from the top surface to the bottom surface of the IC module,
If the micro-holes penetrate at least the insulating substrate and the electrode plate, the diameter of the micro-holes formed in the electrode plate should be increased, or the micro-holes should be provided in areas where the electrode plates are not formed to provide insulation. The lower end of the micro-hole provided in the substrate is opened on the bottom surface of the IC module, and since the IC module is only provided with a micro-hole in the vertical direction, it is extremely easy to manufacture. If a molten resin is injected around the IC module so as to cover the IC module to form an IC card base, the minute holes formed in the IC module are filled with the synthetic resin forming the IC card base, and The tip portion of the filled synthetic resin is formed to have a slightly larger diameter, so that the IC module and the IC card base can be easily and firmly bonded to each other.

Therefore, the IC module according to the present invention can be easily mass-produced as an IC module with extremely low risk of falling off from an IC card.
