The covered wires are placed between the chip and the anvil. The chip is located with the length of its cross section disposed along the length of the other covered wire The chip and the anvil are pushed toward each other and the chip is vibrated. Friction heat is generated between the covered wires The covers are adhered together and the conductors are bonded to each other by ultrasonic welding.
