Abstract

A connecting method comprising laminating a flexible circuit substrate having a plurality of bump contacts with a contact object having a plurality of portions to be contacted such that the respective bump contacts face to the portions to be contacted at a joined surface, correspondingly each other to form a laminate, and applying pressure to the entire surface of the laminate in a compressing direction with pressurizing means provided so as to pinch the laminate in a laminating direction to contact the plural bump contacts mounted on the flexible circuit substrate with the plural portions to be contacted corresponding thereto mounted on the contact object, respectively.
