Abstract: A data carrier (1) includes an IC module (3), having a substrate (4), and a conductor configuration (5) connected to the substrate (4), and an IC (2) connected to the substrate (4), and connecting leads (10, 11) between the conductor configuration (5) and the IC (2), and a cover (12) of an electrically insulating material, which cover (12) shrouds the IC (2) and the connecting leads (10, 11) and the portions (13, 14, 15) of the conductor configuration (5) The data carrier (1) is equipped with a protection mechanism (20) that provides protection against damage to at least a part of the IC module (3) when the IC module (3) is bent or twisted, which protection mechanism (20) forms a part of the IC module (3), consists of a ductile material, and is formed by a layer-shaped, preferably net-like, cap which is encased in the cover (12) up to the substrate means (4).

Abstract: A module (1) for contactless communication includes a plurality of electrical components (4, 5, 6, 7, 8) which each have at least two contact faces (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16) for the electrical connection. The electrical components (4, 5, 6, 7, 8) of the module are mounted both on a component side (MB) and an on adhesive side (MK) of a lead frame (M) formed by metal strips (MS). During the manufacture of the module (1) the metal strips (MS) of the lead frame (M) are held in one plane (E) and in position by means of an adhesive tape (K). The adhesive tape (K) has openings (A1, A2, A3, A4, A5, A6) at given positions of the lead frame (M) so as to enable electrical components to be mounted on the adhesive side (MK) of the lead frame (M).
