Method for aligning and assembling spaced components

A method for aligning and assembling a first component to a second component with a desired spacing therebetween, said method comprising:

• providing an aligner bonder tool including a first bondhead and a second bondhead;
• calibrating the tool to eliminate a parallax error by simulating the desired spacing between the bondheads during a calibration process;
• placing the first component on the first bondhead and the second component on the second bondhead;
• aligning reference locations on the first component with reference locations on the second component by adjusting a location of the first or second bondhead;
• and
• bringing the first and second components towards one another to the desired spacing by moving the first or second bondheads towards one another.

A method for aligning and assembling a first component with a second component with a desired spacing therebetween, said method comprising:

• providing an aligner bonder tool having a first bondhead and a second bondhead;
• calibrating the tool to eliminate a parallax error using a calibration reticle and aligning one of the bondheads using the calibration reticle while the desired spacing is maintained between the first and second bondhead;
• placing the first component on the first bondhead and the second component on the second bondhead and aligning reference locations on the first component with reference locations on the second component;
• bringing the first and second components towards one another using the first or second bondheads;
• and
• bonding the first component and the second component to one another with the desired spacing therebetween.
