Electronic device with integrally formed light emitting device and supporting member

A fixing member for fixing a semiconductor device having a semiconductor circuit formed therein, comprising:

• a holding member operable to hold said semiconductor device at a predetermined position;
• and
• a plurality of light emitting devices formed integrally with said holding member, said light emitting devices being operable to emit light,
• wherein said light emitted from the light emitting devices indicates a reference position of said semiconductor device,
• wherein said semiconductor device comprises a body,
• wherein said light emitting devices are attached to a periphery of said body and emit said light towards a light receiving device that is to detect a position of said semiconductor device, and
• wherein the semiconductor device is optically and electrically independent from the plurality of light emitting devices.

An electronic device in which a semiconductor circuit is formed, manufactured by a semiconductor fabrication process, comprising:

• step for providing a semiconductor device;
• and
• step for forming a plurality of laser devices on the semiconductor device so as to be monolithic with the semiconductor device,
• wherein said laser devices emit light towards a light receiving device that is to detect a position of said semiconductor device, and
• wherein the semiconductor device is optically and electrically independent from the plurality of light emitting devices.
