Abstract

An IC module incorporated in an IC-card includes a substrate, an IC chip mounted on the substrate, and an antenna coil electrically connected to the IC chip. The antenna coil includes a conductive film which is patterned on a surface of the substrate, thereby facilitating fabrication of the IC module while realizing a thickness reduction of the IC module.
