Abstract
In a method for manufacturing a contact chip card, a dielectric support film is provided in the form of a strip. A metal grid which defines contact pads on the upper surface thereof and connection pads on the lower surface thereof is created. The dielectric support film is irremovably fixed on the upper surface of the metal grid in such a way that the contact pads of the grid are free. The chip is glued and connected to the connection pads of the grid, and the metal grid is cut to obtain a micromodule to be inserted in the cavity of a body of the card. In one particular embodiment, the grid is arched in order to encase the thickness of the dielectric.
