The present invention has: a heater; and a bonding tool having a lower surface on which a memory chip is adsorbed; and an upper surface attached to the heater, and is provided with a bonding tool which presses the peripheral edge of the memory chip to a solder ball in a first peripheral area of the lower surface and which presses the center of the memory chip (60) to a DAF having a heat resistance temperature lower than that of the solder ball in a first center area. The amount of heat transmitted from the first center area to the center of the memory chip is smaller than that transmitted from the first peripheral area (A) to the peripheral edge of the memory chip. Thus, the bonding apparatus in which the center of a bonding member can be heated to a temperature lower than that at the peripheral edge can be provided.

The wafer-level pulling method further includes softening the plurality of solder bumps; and stretching the plurality of softened solder bumps.

Provided is a flip chip mounting apparatus for mounting chips (400) to a substrate (200), and the apparatus includes at least one sectionalized mounting stage (45) divided into a heating section (452) and a non-heating section (456), the heating section being for heating a substrate (200) fixed to a front surface of the heating section, the non-heating section not heating the substrate (200) suctioned to a front surface of the non-heating section. With this, it is possible to provide an electronic-component mounting apparatus that is simple and capable of efficiently mounting a large number of electronic components.

A semiconductor device includes a substrate, a semiconductor element and a tin-based solder layer. The semiconductor element faces the substrate in a normal direction of the substrate.

The tin-based solder layer a central portion and a peripheral portion surrounding the central portion. The tin-based solder layer has a tin crystal with a C-axis at each of the central portion and the peripheral portion. The C-axis at the central portion intersects the normal line at an angle larger than 45 degrees with respect to the normal line. The C-axis at the peripheral portion either intersects the normal line at an angle smaller than or equal to 45 degrees with respect to the normal line, or is parallel to the normal line.

A solder reflow oven may include a reflow chamber and a plurality of vertically spaced apart wafer-support plates positioned in the reflow chamber.
