FIELD: connecting integrated-circuit chips to contactless intelligent card antenna having deformable contacts.
SUBSTANCE: antenna is printed by means of conducting dye on antenna substrate 16 manufactured from deformable material. Proposed method includes installation of integrated-circuit chip 10 provided with contacts 12 made of non-deformable material on antenna substrate so as to ensure that contacts face antenna contacts 18 and pressure is applied to integrated-circuit chip 10 so as to make integrated-circuit chip contacts 12 deform antenna substrate 16 due to pressure applied; substrate 16 and contacts 18 retain their deformed state upon releasing pressure thereby producing maximal contacting surface area between contacts 12 of integrated-circuit chip 10 and antenna contacts 18.
EFFECT: easy connection of integrated-circuit chip to antenna, enhanced yield.
