An apparatus for manufacturing packaged semiconductor devices includes a lower plate having package platforms and clamp guide pins to align an upper plate with the lower plate, and a boat tray having windows configured to receive package devices, and a plurality of upper plates configured to be aligned to respective windows and respective package platforms. Clamping force can be applied by fasteners configured to generate a downward force upon the upper plate. Package devices on the platforms are thus subjected to a clamping force. Load cells measure the clamping force so adjustments can be made.

A packaged semiconductor device and a method and apparatus for forming the same are disclosed. In an embodiment, a method includes bonding a device die to a first surface of a substrate; depositing an adhesive on the first surface of the substrate; depositing a thermal interface material on a surface of the device die opposite the substrate; placing a lid over the device die and the substrate, the lid contacting the adhesive and the thermal interface material; applying a clamping force to the lid and the substrate; and while applying the clamping force, curing the adhesive and the thermal interface material.

A jig for manufacturing a semiconductor package includes a bottom piece and an upper piece. The bottom piece includes a base, a support plate, and at least one elastic connector. The support plate is located in a central region of the base. The at least one elastic connector is interposed between the support plate and the base. The upper piece includes a cap and outer flanges. The cap overlays the support plate when the upper piece is disposed on the bottom piece. The outer flanges are disposed at edges of the cap, connected with the cap. The outer flanges contact the base of the bottom piece when the upper piece is disposed on the bottom piece. The cap includes an opening which is a through hole. When the upper piece is disposed on the bottom piece, a vertical projection of the opening falls entirely on the support plate.

The invention is directed towards enhanced systems and methods for employing a pulsed photon (or EM energy) source, such as but not limited to a laser, to electrically couple, bond, and/or affix the electrical contacts of a semiconductor device to the electrical contacts of another semiconductor devices. Full or partial rows of LEDs are electrically coupled, bonded, and/or affixed to a backplane of a display device. The LEDs may be μLEDs. The pulsed photon source is employed to irradiate the LEDs with scanning photon pulses. The EM radiation is absorbed by either the surfaces, bulk, substrate, the electrical contacts of the LED, and/or electrical contacts of the backplane to generate thermal energy that induces the bonding between the electrical contacts of the LEDs' electrical contacts and backplane's electrical contacts. The temporal and spatial profiles of the photon pulses, as well as a pulsing frequency and a scanning frequency of the photon source, are selected to control for adverse thermal effects.
