A manufacturing method includes the step of laminating a sheet assembly onto chips arranged on a processing tape, where the sheet assembly has a multilayer structure including a base and a sinter-bonding sheet and is laminated so that the sinter-bonding sheet faces the chips, and subsequently removing the base B from the sinter-bonding sheet. The chips on the processing tape are picked up each with a portion of the sinter-bonding sheet adhering to the chip, to give sinter-bonding material layer-associated chips. The sinter-bonding material layer-associated chips are temporarily secured through the sinter-bonding material layer to a substrate. The sinter-bonding material layers lying between the temporarily secured chips and the substrate are converted through a heating process into sintered layers, to bond the chips to the substrate. The semiconductor device manufacturing method is suitable for efficiently supplying a sinter-bonding material to semiconductor chips while reducing loses of the sinter-bonding material.
