Method for producing a carrier strip comprising a large number of electrical units, each having a chip and contact elements

Carrier tape (11) with a plurality of chips (7) for use in the mechanized manufacture of transponders, whereby the carrier tape (11) exhibits:

• a plurality of approximately equally spaced penetrations (14) each for the accommodation of one chip (7);
• a double-sided adhesive tape (15), for fixing the chips (7) in the penetrations (14), which is fitted on the underside and along the carrier tape (11) and overspans the penetrations (14);
• and
• a plurality of chips (7) with at least one connection surface (8) each of which engages in the penetrations (14) and is fixed by the adhesive tape (15), whereby
• the at least one connection surface (8) of the chip (7) is in each case joined, electrically conducting, with a contact element (16).

Carrier tape (11) with a plurality of chips (7) for use in the mechanized manufacture of transponders, whereby the carrier tape (11) exhibits:

• a metallic or metallized surface;
• a plurality of approximately equally spaced penetrations (14) each for the accommodation of one chip (7);
• and
• a plurality of chips (7) with at least one connection surface (8) each of which is inserted into penetrations (14), whereby
• the at least one connection surface (8) of the chip (7) is in each case joined, electrically conducting, to a contact element (16) and
• the contact element (16) is joined at its other end to the metallic or metallized surface of the carrier tape (11).
