Abstract

An IC card comprises a thermoplastic resin core sheet and an IC chip bearing a conductive projection formed on an electrode of the IC chip, the IC chip being embedded in the core sheet in such a manner that the exposed top surface of the conductive projection is made flush with the main surface of the core sheet. A conductive layer pattern formed on the main surface of the core sheet is extended for contact with the exposed top surface.
