Abstract

A method of fabricating a microcircuit card provides better control of the spreading of a hardenable coating material during fabrication of the microcircuit card. The surface of a support is treated to define at least two areas with different surface states and both extending beyond a predetermined location of the microcircuit. The deposit of the material is delimited by the configuration of these areas. The treatment is preferably applied by means of a laser beam.
