Abstract
The present invention provides a radio frequency identification (RFID) tag which exchanges information with an external device in a noncontact manner, in which a paste is used as a material for an antenna, and which is designed to prevent sinking of bumps. A stopper for limiting sinking of bumps of a circuit chip caused by a pressing force when the circuit chip is connected to an antenna is provided on the circuit chip or a base at a position adjacent to the bumps.
