The present invention provides a mounting apparatus, including a bonding stage holding a substrate on which a semiconductor chip is arranged; a base stand; a mounting head mounted with a pressing tool that presses the semiconductor chip on the substrate; and a film arranging mechanism provided on the base stand and moving a cover film along the bonding stage to arrange the cover film between the semiconductor chip pressed by the substrate and the pressing tool. The film arranging mechanism includes film guides guiding the cover film and defining a height with respect to the bonding stage; and lifting mechanisms connected to the film guides via springs and lifting and lowering the film guides with respect to the bonding stage.

At least one semiconductor chip or die is held within at a chip retaining formation provided in a chip holding device. The chip holding device is then positioned with the at least one semiconductor chip or die arranged facing a chip attachment location in a chip mounting substrate. This positioning produces a cavity between the at least one semiconductor chip or die arranged at the chip retaining formation and the chip attachment location in the chip mounting substrate. A chip attachment material is dispensed into the cavity. Once cured, the chip attachment material attaches the at least one semiconductor chip or die onto the substrate at the chip attachment location in the chip mounting substrate.

An electronic component mounting method including the steps of: providing a first electronic component having a principal surface provided with a plurality of bumps; providing a substrate having a placement area provided with a plurality of first electrodes corresponding to the plurality of bumps; applying flux to the plurality of bumps; applying flux to at least one of the first electrodes adjacent to at least one reinforcement position set on a peripheral portion of the placement area; dispensing a thermosetting resin onto the reinforcement position, and at least partially coating the first electrode adjacent to the reinforcement position, with the thermosetting resin; placing the first electronic component on the substrate such that the bumps land on the corresponding first electrodes, and thus bringing the thermosetting resin into contact with a peripheral edge portion of the first electronic component; and heating the substrate with the first electronic component placed thereon.

A lid attach process includes providing a substrate and a die attached to the substrate, providing a lid and dipping a periphery of the lid in a dipping tank of adhesive material such that the adhesive material attaches to the periphery of the lid, and positioning the lid over the die and placing the lid on a top of the substrate with the adhesive material being adapted to interface with a periphery of the substrate.

An integrated circuit (IC) solder ball mounting apparatus comprises a ball storage unit for storing solder balls, a ball buffer unit configured to receive the solder balls from the ball storage unit in response to one or more pressure-actuated actions, and a gate valve configured to allow the solder balls to transfer to a ball mounting brush configured to place the solder balls onto area array contact structures formed on a wafer containing the integrated circuit.

A nozzle of a semiconductor manufacturing apparatus includes a cross groove provided on a bottom surface, a supply hole provided in the center of the cross groove, and exhaust grooves that extend from ends of the cross groove to the outside of the bottom surface on the bottom surface and are shallower than the cross groove. The semiconductor manufacturing apparatus includes the nozzle, a syringe connected to the nozzle, and a dispenser that fills, in the cross groove, resin paste in the syringe via the supply hole with a gas pressure or an air pressure.

One embodiment of the present invention discloses an intelligent dispensing adjustment system and the method thereof. The system can dynamically detect the fluid dispensing amount of a fluid dispensing unit via a calculating unit having an intelligent dispensing mechanism and keeps monitoring the dispensing situation of the fluid material so as to automatically adjust the fluid dispensing amount of the fluid dispensing unit. The system can adjust the fluid dispensing amount of the fluid dispensing unit by obtaining the information of the state of previously dispensing the fluid material via a closed loop, which can solve the problems, of prior art, that the defects of products may be incurred because the state of the fluid material is hard to control (e.g., the fluid material is insufficient or overflows).
