Abstract:
The present invention provides a printed wiring board, an IC card module including the printed wiring board, and a method for fabricating the IC card module, for improving reliability of IC cards. The printed wiring board and the IC card module of the invention include: a base having a resin sealing region, clamped regions in a periphery zone of the resin sealing region clamped with a sealing mold, and non-clamped regions in the periphery zone; and terminals for external connection formed on the top surface of the base. The terminals are formed in a region other than any of the resin sealing region, the clamped regions, and the non-claimed regions.
