An embodiment of the present invention is an IC chip mounting apparatus includes: a conveyor configured to convey an antenna continuous body on a conveying surface, the antenna continuous body having a base material and plural inlay antennas continuously formed on the base material, the antenna continuous body having an adhesive and an IC chip placed at a reference position of each of the antennas; a measurement unit configured to measure an interval between adjacent two of the antennas of the antenna continuous body; a press unit moving machine configured to sequentially feed out press units each having a pressing surface, from a waiting position, to move each of the press units along the conveying surface; and a controller configured to control timing of feeding out each of the press units from the waiting position based on the interval measured by the measurement unit, so that the pressing surface of each of the press units presses a predetermined region containing the reference position of each of the antennas on the conveying surface.

A manufacturing apparatus of a semiconductor device includes a stage, a mounting tool, a pressing mechanism, and a controller. The pressing mechanism moves the mounting tool in a vertical direction and applies a load to a chip. The controller is configured to perform a first process and a detection process. In the first process, after bringing the chip into contact and until a bump melts, the chip is heated by the mounting tool and a command position of the pressing mechanism is constantly updated so that a positional deviation is constant. In the detection process, melting of the bump is detected based on a decrease in the pressing load.

A method of preparing a substrate for substrate bonding is provided. The method comprises: forming a recess in a substrate surface of the substrate, and forming a bondable dielectric layer on the substrate surface of the substrate. The bondable dielectric layer has a bonding surface on an opposite side of the bondable dielectric layer to the substrate surface, wherein the recess and the bondable dielectric layer define a dielectric cavity having a dielectric cavity volume. A plug is formed configured to make electrical contact to the substrate in the dielectric cavity volume. The plug has a plug volume which is less than the dielectric cavity volume, wherein the plug extends from the dielectric cavity beyond the bonding surface in a direction generally normal to the bonding surface. The plug is coined by compressing the substrate between opposing planar surfaces such that a contact surface of the plug is made co-planar with the bonding surface.

A heat assisted flip chip bonding apparatus includes a semiconductor assembly having a substrate and a chip, a heating source and a press and cover assembly having a cover element and press elements.

The press elements are located between the cover element and the semiconductor assembly and each includes an elastic unit and a pressing unit. Both ends of the elastic unit are connected to the cover element and the pressing unit respectively, and the pressing unit is provided to press a back surface of the chip.

The invention is directed towards enhanced systems and methods for employing a pulsed photon (or EM energy) source, such as but not limited to a laser, to electrically couple, bond, and/or affix the electrical contacts of a semiconductor device to the electrical contacts of another semiconductor devices. Full or partial rows of LEDs are electrically coupled, bonded, and/or affixed to a backplane of a display device. The LEDs may be μLEDs. The pulsed photon source is employed to irradiate the LEDs with scanning photon pulses. The EM radiation is absorbed by either the surfaces, bulk, substrate, the electrical contacts of the LED, and/or electrical contacts of the backplane to generate thermal energy that induces the bonding between the electrical contacts of the LEDs' electrical contacts and backplane's electrical contacts. The temporal and spatial profiles of the photon pulses, as well as a pulsing frequency and a scanning frequency of the photon source, are selected to control for adverse thermal effects.

A hot-pressing member proofed against thinning and shearing forces caused by laterally overflowing during pressing operations includes a base with cavity, a first supporting member in the cavity, a buffer member, and a second supporting member. The first supporting member includes first through hole. The buffer member includes a second through hole. The second supporting member is mounted on the buffer member. The second supporting member with third through hole supports the workpiece. The workpiece or part is in the third, second, and first through holes, and is hot-pressed with the adhesive film in a centered and constrained manner through all the through holes. The disclosure also provides a hot-pressing device having the hot-pressing member.

A mounting apparatus includes: a bonding stage; a base; a mounting head for performing a temporary press-attachment process in which semiconductor chips are suction-held and temporarily press-attached to a mounted object and a final press-attachment process in which the temporarily press-attached semiconductor chips are finally press-attached; a film arrangement mechanism arranged on the bonding stage or the base; and a controller which controls driving of the mounting head and the film arrangement mechanism. The film arrangement mechanism includes: a film feed-out mechanism which has a pair of feed rollers with a cover film extended there-between and successively feeds out a new cover film; and a film movement mechanism which moves the cover film in a horizontal direction with respect to a substrate.

Embodiments of methods and apparatus for reducing warpage of a substrate are provided herein. In some embodiments, a method for reducing warpage of a substrate includes: applying an epoxy mold over a plurality of dies on the substrate in a dispenser tool; placing the substrate on a pedestal in a curing chamber, wherein the substrate has an expected post-cure deflection in a first direction; inducing a curvature on the substrate in a direction opposite the first direction; and curing the substrate by heating the substrate in the curing chamber.

In a method of manufacturing a semiconductor package, information with respect to a downward warpage of a reference package substrate, which may be bent with respect to a long axis and/or a short axis of the reference package substrate in applying heat to the reference package substrate to which a plurality of semiconductor chips may be attached using a die attach film (DAF), may be obtained. A package substrate, which may include a first surface to which the semiconductor chips may be attached using the DAF and a second surface opposite to the first surface, may be rotated with respect to the long axis or the short axis at an angle selected based on the information. The heat may be applied to the package substrate to cure the DAF and correct a warpage of the package substrate. Thus, warpage of the package substrate may be corrected for.
