ABSTRACT:
An IC card includes an IC module and a card base. The IC module is constituted by a circuit board having contact patterns formed thereon and an IC chip mounted on the circuit board. The card base houses the IC module so as to expose the contact patterns. The circuit board of the IC module is constituted by a pattern portion on which the contact patterns are formed and bent portions formed by bending the pattern portion. The card base includes an opening for exposing the contact patterns of the IC module, and clamping portions, formed on peripheral portions of the opening, for fixing the bent portions. The bent portions of the IC module are fixedly clamped by the clamping portions such that the contact patterns are arranged on substantially the same plane as a surface of the card base.
