Proposed is a method for controlling a boat carrier/substrate strip type solder ball placement system that allows solder ball mounting processes for a boat carrier type of a material and a substrate strip type of a material to be all performed in one system. In specific, the method allows the components or operation setting of the system to be automatically controlled according to the types of materials loaded on a magazine, thereby performing solder ball mounting processes for the two types of materials with high speed and high accuracy. In more specific, the method allows a component applied only to the solder ball mounting process for the boat carrier type of material and a component applied to the solder ball mounting process for the substrate strip type of material to be integrated with each other as a single component in the process of mounting the solder balls on the material on-loaded, thereby making it possible to perform the solder ball mounting processes for the two different types of materials in one system.

A ball disposition system includes a ball adsorption device, and a ball guide plate providing a ball guide hole. The ball adsorption device includes an adsorption plate providing an adsorption hole extending in a first direction, and a pin extending in the first direction, a portion of the pin inserted in the adsorption hole. The ball guide plate is located beyond the adsorption plate in the first direction.

A dual-type solder ball placement system is capable of allowing solder balls of the same type or solder balls having two different types to be mounted simultaneously through two ball mounting lines, thereby efficiently mounting the solder balls arranged with various purposes and patterns. Specifically, the dual-type solder ball placement system allows solder balls serving as terminals and core balls serving as supports to be mounted simultaneously through an inline method, thereby preventing a wafer, a unit, a chipset, and the like that become lighter, thinner, shorter, and smaller from being bent.

A flux tool allows the elastic pad to pressurize each flux pin individually in a process of dotting flux, so that even though a wafer or die may be deformed, high-quality flux dotting is achieved. Specifically, the flux tool allows the elastic pad pressurizing the flux pins to be made of rubber, especially silicone, so that primarily, the flux pins are entirely pressurized uniformly by means of the elastic force of the elastic pad, and secondarily, each flux pin is individually pressurized against the underside of the elastic pad, thereby adjusting the heights of the flux pins upon flux dotting according to the flatness or bent shape of the wafer or die to minimize the flux dotting defects.

A dipping apparatus includes a squeegee device and a plate for forming a flux film out of flux. A surface of the plate has a rough surface with a nano-level arithmetically average roughness. The dipping apparatus is configured in such a way that the squeegee device and the plate are moved relatively to each other, and the flux is fed from the squeegee device to the rough surface of the plate.

This disclosure teaches methods for making high-temperature superconducting striated tape combinations and the product high-temperature superconducting striated tape combinations. This disclosure describes an efficient and scalable method for aligning and bonding two superimposed high-temperature superconducting (HTS) filamentary tapes to form a single integrated tape structure. This invention aligns a bottom and top HTS tape with a thin intervening insulator layer with microscopic precision, and electrically connects the two sets of tape filaments with each other. The insulating layer also reinforces adhesion of the top and bottom tapes, mitigating mechanical stress at the electrical connections. The ability of this method to precisely align separate tapes to form a single tape structure makes it compatible with a reel-to-reel production process.
