Research on practical realization of various types of printable devices has progressed, and the realization of devices in which these printable devices are integrated on a flexible board is expected. However, there is the problem that, if a plurality of printable devices are simply integrated on the same board, the area of the integrated device increases, and the yield ratio greatly decreases. An integration technique that solves the problem of an increase in the area and a decrease in the yield ratio is in demand. Electronic devices to be integrated are formed on individual boards, the boards are laid to overlap each other in a predetermined relationship, and then through-vias are formed at predetermined positions. With this, the electronic devices are electrically connected to each other, and function as an integrated device.
