The first arm 621 includes a first end 621a pivotably supported at a corresponding one of three different positions P11 to P13, and a second end 621b on the opposite side of the first end 621a. The second arm 622 includes a second rotary axis 622c and is pivotably supported on the second end 621b of the first arm 621 at a position different from the second rotary axis 622c. The alignment action units 63 are connected to corresponding second arms. The second rotary axes 622c are at three positions P21 to P23 separated from the rotary unit 61 toward three different directions centered on the first rotary axis 61c.

A jig for bonding a semiconductor chip may include a pressurizing portion and at least one opening. The pressuring portion may be configured to pressurize an upper surface of the semiconductor chip bonded to a package substrate via a bump and a flux using a laser. The opening may be surrounded by the pressurizing portion. The laser irradiated to the bump and the flux may be transmitted through the opening. A vapor generated from the flux by the laser may be discharged through the opening. Thus, the contamination of the jig caused by the vapor may be prevented so that a transmissivity of the laser through the jig may be maintained.

The semiconductor device has a first external electrode having an outer peripheral section, which has a circular shape in top plan view and which is to be attached to an alternator. On the first external electrode there mounted: a MOSFET chip; a control circuitry to which voltages at or a current flowing between a first main terminal and a second main terminal of the MOSFET chip is inputted and which generates, on the basis of the voltages or the current, a control signal applied to a gate of the MOSFET chip; and a capacitor for providing a power supply to the control circuitry. The semiconductor device further has a second external electrode disposed opposite to the first external electrode with respect to the MOSFET chip. An electrical connection is made between the first main terminal of the MOSFET chip and the first external electrode, and between the second main terminal of the MOSFET chip and the second external electrode.
