An object of the present invention is to make it possible to input coordinate information continuously among a plurality of input faces in inputting such coordinate information from the plurality of input faces by specifying coordinate positions. When a time measured between an end of a first input on the first input face and a start of a second input on the second input face is within a predetermined time, the first and second inputs are recognized as one continuous input even if the first input is stopped. Furthermore, when the end position of the first input is within a predetermined region, the first and second inputs are recognized as one continuous input even if the first input is stopped. Accordingly, it becomes possible to make a series of inputs by using the plurality of input faces.

Coordinate input apparatus, coordinate input method and computer-readable recording medium including a coordinate input control program recorded therein

An IC card comprising a card body having a concave position provided on one of surfaces thereof and an IC module fitted into the concave portion, wherein the IC module includes a very thin LSI having an active device and metallic wire layers formed on a semiconductor substrate, electrodes for connection formed on the metallic wire layers, external connecting terminals having the electrodes for connection connected to the back faces thereof and a resin for fixing the very thin LSI onto the back faces of the external connecting terminals, and the semiconductor substrate of the very thin LSI substantially exists but is made thin like a film so that the IC module is very thin entirely.

Method for manufacturing an IC module for an IC card whereby an IC

A multifunction card type electronic apparatus comprising a simple flat-shaped circuit board into which electronic components are mounted; a protective member that is disposed on at least the top surface of the circuit board except for a portion of the top surface of the circuit board on which external connection terminals are to be disposed; and a terminal board on the top surface of which the external connection terminals are disposed, the terminal board being placed and bonded onto the portion of the top surface of the circuit board by means of an electrically conductive material so that the external connection terminals are electrically connected to the circuit board, whereby the electronic apparatus is produced in a low cost, easy to produce and suited to a mass production.
