An anisotropically conductive connector, inhibits permanent deformation by
contact of target electrodes to be connected with pressure and
deformation by abrasion from occurring even if the target electrodes to
be connected are those projected, achieves stable conductivity over a
long period of time even when it is pressed repeatedly, and prevents or
inhibits an object of connection from adhering, a production process
thereof, and an inspection apparatus for circuit devices equipped with
the anisotropically conductive connector. The anisotropically having an
anisotropically conductive film, in which a plurality of conductive
path-forming parts each extending in a thickness-wise direction of the
film are arranged in a state mutually insulated by insulating parts. The
anisotropically conductive film is formed by an insulating elastic
polymeric substance, conductive particles exhibiting magnetism are
contained in the conductive path-forming parts, and a reinforcing
material formed of insulating mesh or nonwoven fabric is contained in a
surface layer portion on one surface side of the anisotropically
conductive film.
