A printed-circuit substrate is provided with: a film-shaped support base having an electrical insulating property and elasticity, which includes a resin mold section for supporting an IC; a plurality of foil-shaped electrodes which are connected to the IC and supported by the support base in such a manner as to extend toward the periphery of the support base; and an exposed portion which is provided by removing the support base in the direction orthogonal to the foil-shaped electrodes over an entire area of the support base between the IC chip and the periphery thereof so as to expose one portion of each foil-shaped electrode. In the case of connecting the foil-shaped electrodes to electrodes of a printed-circuit substrate by means of soldering, the tips of the foil-shaped electrodes are soldered to the respective electrodes by applying heat and pressure to a part of the support base located on the tip-side of the exposed portions of the foil-shaped electrodes. This arrangement makes it possible to improve the pliability of the exposed portion; therefore, even if the support base is miniaturized to have a thin width by shortening the exposed portion, the reliability of the connecting structure is improved between the tips of the foil-shaped electrodes and the electrodes.
