Abstract
A method for automatically transferring multiple semiconductor devices from a first substrate to a second substrate comprises steps of providing a first substrate on which the semiconductor device is formed, providing a second substrate directly under the first substrate, automatically moving the first substrate toward the second substrate such that the semiconductor devices are close to the second substrate; connecting the semiconductor devices to the second substrate by exerting force to the second substrate, and taking out the semiconductor devices simultaneously from the first substrate.
Claims10
A method for transferring a plurality of semiconductor devices from a first substrate to a second substrate, the method comprising steps of:
- providing the first substrate on which the plurality of semiconductor devices are fixed, wherein the first substrate is an adhesive film applied to a ring and the plurality of semiconductor devices are provided within the ring by directly connecting their bottom surfaces to the adhesive film;
- providing a positioning unit having a circular opening;
- fixing the ring in the circular opening of the positioning unit such that top surfaces of the plurality of semiconductor devices face downwardly;
- providing the second substrate directly under the first substrate;
- moving the first substrate toward the second substrate by setting the positioning unit to a predetermined position such that the plurality of semiconductor devices are close to the second substrate;
- moving a movable heater above the adhesive film and turning on the movable heater to heat the adhesive film;
- connecting the top surfaces of the plurality of semiconductor devices to the second substrate by exerting force on the first substrate, wherein exerting force on the first substrate is carried out by a first device in accordance with an instruction from a programmable controller;
- and
- after the connecting step, taking out the plurality of semiconductor devices simultaneously from the first substrate.
