Figure 11 a and 11b illustrates the joint head group 801 including joint head 801a-e. Joint head group 801 can be used on and is previously discussed for being bonded in the device of substrate semiconductor chip junction.
As it has been described above, in one embodiment, the joint head 801a-e of joint head group 801 is linearly arranged on guide rail 808. Specifically, each joint head 801a-e is configured on guide rail 808 to slide. Each joint head 801a-e includes linear drive unit, and described linear drive unit allows described each joint head to slide to another particular location along guide rail 808 from a particular location. Each joint head 801a-e can communicate with described controller. Described controller is configured for controlling the operation of joint head 801a-e. Therefore, each joint head 801a-e can be controlled by described controller to slide between two or more particular locations along guide rail 808.
As more specifically found out from Figure 11 a, in one embodiment, the joint head 801a-e of joint head group 801 slides on guide rail 808 and adjoins joint head to change, for instance the spacing between 801a and 801b. Such as, specific spacing is probably necessity, in order to the chip being attached on substrate is that described specific range separates. Specifically, chip binding site on substrate can separate specific range, and therefore, before performing to combine, described chip must flow through specific range separately.
In one embodiment, whole joint head group 801 can be slided along guide rail 808 as one. Whole operation is regarded as rough horizontal movement. Alternatively, single joint head can slide independent of other joint heads some or all of. Operation by the horizontal movement plate of each joint head 801a-e, it may be achieved finer horizontal movement. These horizontal movement plates can as one motion. Alternatively, the horizontal movement plate of different joint heads may differ from or horizontal movement plate independent of other joint head moves. All joint heads can pass through they respective corners maneuvering boards and perform identical angular movement track. Alternatively, different joint heads can perform different angular movements. In one embodiment, the level of each joint head and angular movement are controlled by described controller.

Moving on to when joint head group 801 location below in conjunction with platform 802, can perform to separate motion simultaneously. The advantage of this operation is in that, chip can be placed on the feeder of same configuration, regardless of spacing required between chip during combining. Such as, described chip can be close together and be placed on feeder, but when described chip is attached on substrate, described chip can separate more. The spacing increased is slided on guide rail 808 by joint head 801a-e and is realized.
In one embodiment, as more specifically found out from Figure 11 b, when only joint head 801a-d needs given cohesive process, joint head 801e is moveable to an end of guide rail 808. Specifically, joint head 801e can slide into the end not overlapped in conjunction with the substrate received on platform 802 along guide rail 808. Remaining joint head 801a-d can separate as mentioned above. In one embodiment, guide rail 808 is comparable longer in conjunction with platform 802 and described substrate. In this way, the joint head of the end sliding into described guide rail can be excluded outside binding operation. In other words, the length dimension of described guide rail is provided so that when at least one joint head described slides to the end of described guide rail, at least one joint head described and restricted in conjunction with the relative motion between platform so that at least one joint head described can not contact substrate.
In one embodiment, when all joint heads beyond a joint head (such as, 801a) have slid into the end of guide rail 808, last remaining joint head 801a can be used for combining to any part in conjunction with platform 802 chip. Specifically, in conjunction with platform 802 can relative to joint head group 801 horizontal movement, as described by reference Fig. 1 and 9a. When a joint head (such as, 801a) of only joint head group 801 does not slide into the end of guide rail 808, can move relative to this joint head in conjunction with platform 802, in order to chip is combined in conjunction with on platform Anywhere. In addition, in one embodiment, when all joint heads beyond two basic change head (such as, 801a and 801b) have slid into the end of guide rail 808, latter two remaining joint head 801a can be used for combining to any part in conjunction with platform 802 chip. This principle is applicable to the remaining joint head of other quantity.

Figure 13 illustrates binding sequence 1100 embodiment performed by device 1200 embodiment shown in Figure 14 a-g. Figure 14 a-g only illustrates a part for device 1200, in order to can clearly be seen that each operation in described sequence. But, device 1200 is similar to the device 2 of Fig. 1 and device 752a and the 752b of Fig. 8. Therefore, device 1200 includes two basic change head 1202a and 1202b, and said two joint head represents multiple joint head. As it is shown in figure 1, joint head 1202a and 1202b is coupled to the upper mounting plate (not shown) of framework. The lower platform 1203 of described framework is remained parallel to lower platform 1203 by pillar 1205a and 1205b (shown in dotted line) and separates with lower platform 1203. Lower platform 1203 include substrate 1208 be positioned on face in conjunction with platform (not shown). Described described substrate can be made to move above at lower platform 1203 in conjunction with platform, as described with reference to fig. 1. Described joint head can provide such as vertical, level described in reference diagram 2 above and angular movement. In one embodiment, joint head 1202a can move independent of joint head 1202b. In one embodiment, joint head 1202a can with joint head 1202b as one motion.
Some other features of device 1200 are described more fully below.
In one embodiment, feeder 1204a configured for by chip feeding to joint head 1202a, and feeder 1204b is configured for by chip feeding to joint head 1202b. Feeder 1204a includes being attached to the chip tray 1210a from the pillar 1205b arm 1212a extended. In use, chip tray 1210a can move between loading position and feed position along arm 1212a. When loading position, chip tray 1210a can at arm 1212a from end farthest for joint head 1202a, in order to corresponding placement device (not shown) can on chip tray 1210a chip placement. When feed position, chip tray 1210a can at arm 1212a from end nearest for joint head 1202a, in order to chip tray 1210a is positioned directly in below joint head 1202a. Feeder 1204b is similar to feeder 1204a, but is associated with joint head 1202b rather than joint head 1202a. Feeder 1204a and 1204b is similar to those feeders of Fig. 8.
In one embodiment, visual system 1206 configured for will on joint head 1202a and 1202b obtain chip with described in conjunction with on platform receive substrate 1208 on appointment position alignment. Visual system 1206 is similar to second visual system 756a and the 756b of Fig. 7.
The detail setting of the binding sequence 1100 of Figure 13 is as follows. Should be appreciated that the operation of device 1200 can be controlled by the controller of device 1200.
Step 1101 can more specifically be found out from Figure 14 a. In step 1101, substrate 1208 receives in conjunction with on platform described. And, feeder 1204a is positioned in its loading position, and the first chip 1220 is such as placed on feeder 1204a by corresponding placement device. Feeder 1204b is positioned in its loading position, but does not have chip to be placed on it face. Joint head 1202a and 1202b is in from the clear position bounced back completely in conjunction with platform, i.e. move to upper mounting plate completely. Visual system 1206 is in the centre of lower platform 1203 and away from the clear position of joint head 1202a or 1202b.
Step 1102 can more specifically be found out from Figure 14 b. In step 1102, described substrate 1208 is made to move in joint head 1202a location below in conjunction with platform. Described location-dependent query 1220 combined 1202a of the first chip in conjunction with platform are combined in the exact position on substrate 1208. , the first chip 1220 to be incorporated in the lower right corner of substrate 1208 from Figure 12 b it can be seen that in the case, as shown on Figure 14 b. It follows that feeder 1204a moves to its feed position below joint head 1202a from its loading position. Once be in described feed position, joint head 1202a such as picks up the first chip 1220 by suction from feeder 1204a. Alternatively, after joint head 1202a picks up the first chip 1220 from feeder 1204a, described substrate 1208 is made to move in described joint head location below in conjunction with platform. Subsequently, the second chip 1222 is such as placed on feeder 1204b by corresponding placement device.
Step 1104 more specifically can be found out from Figure 14 c. In step 1104, empty feeder 1204a moves back into its loading position. Visual system 1206 moves between joint head 1202a and substrate 1208. Then, visual system 1206 determines the described necessary motion in conjunction with platform and joint head 1202a in conjunction with described controller, in order to the first chip 1220 introduces the first chip binding site being aligned on substrate 1208. Then, described move in conjunction with platform and/or joint head 1202a, so that the first chip is directed at the first chip binding site. Subsequently, feeder 1204b moves to its feed position below joint head 1202b from its loading position.
The process being directed at the first chip binding site by first chip 1220 is explained in greater detail with reference to Figure 14 d.
Figure 14 d illustrates according to embodiment, and how visual system 1206 may operate to make the first chip 1220 obtained by described joint head be directed at the first chip binding site on substrate 1208. In one embodiment, the photographic head of visual system 1206 can include two lens. First lens of the photographic head of visual system 1206 are for measuring first chip 1220 position on joint head 1202a. Second lens of the photographic head of visual system 1206 are for measuring first chip binding site position on substrate 1208. As it has been described above, described binding site can be identified by the alignment mark (or reference mark) on substrate 1208. Described alignment mark is illustrated on Figure 14 d by cross mark. As from Figure 14 d it can be seen that the first chip 1220 is intended to combined so that two diagonal angle 1220a and 1220b and two alignment mark 1208a and 1208b of the first chip 1220 are respectively aligned to. Alternatively, alignment mark (or reference mark) also is present on the first chip 1220. First chip 1220 is intended to combined so that the alignment mark of the first chip 1220 is respectively aligned to the alignment mark on substrate 1208. Therefore, in operating first, visual system 1206 moves to catch the first chip 1220 at the image being positioned on the joint head 1202a above substrate 1208. In operating second, first visual system 1206 moves to position 1206a, to catch the image of first alignment mark in two alignment mark 1208a. Subsequently, visual system 1206 moves to position 1206b, to catch the image of second alignment mark in two alignment mark 1208b. Visual system 1206 is then returned to its clear position. Therefore, total of three image is caught. Alternatively, the image of movable the first diagonal angle 1220a to catch the first chip 1220 of visual system 1206. It follows that visual system 1206 moves to catch the second diagonal angle 1220b of the first chip 1220. Therefore, total of four image is caught. Each image can compare with reference position, in order to determines whether the first chip 1220 is directed at the first chip binding site. If being directed at incorrect, then calculate skew and described move to alignment in conjunction with platform and/or joint head 1202a.
Step 1106 can more specifically be found out from Figure 14 e. In step 1106, the second chip is such as picked up from feeder 1204b by joint head 1202b by suction. Then, empty feeder 1204b motion returns its loading position. Visual system 1206 moves between joint head 1202b and substrate 1208. Then, visual system 1206 determines the described necessary motion in conjunction with platform and joint head 1202b in conjunction with described controller, in order to the second chip introduces the second chip binding site being aligned on substrate 1208. Move it follows that described in conjunction with platform and/or joint head 1202b, so that the second chip and the second chip binding site alignment. This process is similar to the above-mentioned process relevant to the first chip and the first chip binding site alignment.
It follows that the first chip on joint head 1202a is combined on substrate 1208 at the first chip binding site. Specifically, joint head 1202a moves towards substrate 1208 vertical (that is, in Z-direction), until the first chip contact substrate 1208. First chip is combined to substrate 1208 by this operation. Subsequently, joint head 1202a is such as by releasing suction release the first chip. Joint head 1202a vertically upward and moves away from substrate 1208 towards upper mounting plate subsequently. It follows that the 3rd chip 1224 is held in place on the feeder 1204a of its loading position.
In one embodiment, the contact between the first chip and substrate can be detected by the sensor device of joint head 1202a, such as by displacement transducer or force transducer. In use, the sensor device of joint head 1202a can detect the point of the impedance of motion generation downward vertically. This point can represent that the first chip has contacted described substrate.
In one embodiment, joint head 1202a is additionally configured to be pressed against on substrate 1208 by the first chip 1220, i.e. by applying pressure. Such as, described sensor device may recognize that the first chip 1220 has contacted described substrate, but this can subsequently result in joint head 1202a and increase the power moved downward. In this way, pressure can be applied to the first chip 1220, to improve the combination between the first chip 1220 and substrate 1208. The operation of joint head 1202a can be controlled by described controller. In one embodiment, the pressure of predetermined amount of time and/or predetermined force can be applied. Described predetermined amount of time and/or power can be defined by described controller. Described predetermined amount of time and/or power can change between different embodiments and between the various process step of identical embodiment.
In one embodiment, joint head 1202a is additionally configured to, when the first chip 1220 is kept by joint head 1202a and/or is incorporated in substrate 1208, heat the first chip 1220. Joint head 1202a can use in conjunction with heater as described in reference diagram 2 above. At the first chip 1220 in time introducing contact substrate 1208, heat the first chip 1220 and may result in the solder entrance molten condition being present on the first chip 1220. Once the first chip 1220 discharges, joint head 12020a can be deactivated in conjunction with heater, in order to combination tool can cool down before obtaining another chip.
Step 1108 can more specifically be found out from Figure 14 f. In step 1108, described substrate 1208 is made to move to next binding site below joint head 1202b in conjunction with platform. Specifically, next binding site described is the second chip binding site of the lower left side that can be located at substrate 1208, as from Figure 14 f find out. Therefore, described substrate 1208 is made to move in conjunction with platform, in order to the second chip binding site is located immediately at below joint head 1202b. It follows that vision camera 1206 uses as mentioned above, to guarantee that the second chip 1222 on joint head 1202b is directed at the second chip binding site of substrate 1208. It is moved to realize alignment if it is necessary, then described in conjunction with platform and/or joint head 1202b. Subsequently, feeder 1204a moves to its feed position from its loading position.
Step 1110 can more specifically be found out from Figure 14 g. In step 1110, the 3rd chip 1224 is obtained from the feeder 1204a in feed position by joint head 1202a. Then, feeder 1204a motion returns its loading position. Then, visual system 1206 moves to joint head 1202a to prepare the alignment of joint head 1202a. It follows that the second chip 1222 on joint head 1202b is combined on substrate 1208 at the second chip binding site. Specifically, joint head 1202b moves towards substrate 1208 vertical (that is, in Z-direction), until the second chip 1222 contact substrate 1208. This operation makes the second chip 1222 combine to substrate 1208. Subsequently, joint head 1202b such as discharges the second chip 1222 by releasing suction. Joint head 1202b vertically upward and moves away from substrate 1208 towards upper mounting plate subsequently. The combination of the second chip 1222 is similar to the joint head 1202a combination to the first chip 1220 by joint head 1202b. And, feeder 1204b receives fourth chip 1226 at its loading position.
Aforesaid operations completes a cycle of cohesive process. According to said process, two chips have been incorporated on described substrate. First chip 1220 is combined by joint head 1202a, and the second chip 1222 is combined by joint head 1202b.
Step 1112 after step 1110, carries out about other chip the need of combining the decision to substrate. If need not be further combined with, then cohesive process 1100 terminates. But, if need further combined with, then repeat above-mentioned operation 1104-1110. But, for being ready for the device 1200 of operation 1104, substrate 1206 moves to below joint head 1202a so that the 3rd chip binding site is directly below the 3rd chip 1224.
When repeating step 1104-1110, the operation about the first chip 1220 is now relevant to the 3rd chip 1224, and the operation about the second chip 1224 is now relevant to fourth chip 1226. It may be noted that aforesaid operations has been introduced into both the 3rd chip 1224 and fourth chip 1226. Additionally, described operation is introduced into new fifth chip and the 6th new chip. Therefore, it can be seen that above-mentioned binding sequence may be used for being attached on substrate 1208 any amount of chip.
Figure 15 a illustrates the top view of device 1300. A part for device 1300 is only shown, in order to can the various operations of more clearly interpreting means 1300. Device 1300 is similar to the device 1200 of Figure 14 a-g. But, device 1300 has following difference.
In one embodiment, device 1300 includes five joint head 1307a-e rather than the joint head group of two basic change head 1202a and 1202b. It addition, described joint head group is similar to the joint head group 801 of Fig. 9 a, 9b, 11a and 11b and each joint head 902a-e being similar to Fig. 9 a, 9b and 10a-c in joint head 1307a-e. Therefore, joint head 1307a-e is arranged on guide rail and can slide on the guideway. In this way, adjoin joint head between spacing be variable.
In one embodiment, device 1300 includes by each feeder 1309 in chip feeding to joint head 1307a-e, rather than having the independent feeder (1204a and 1204b) for each joint head (1202a and 1202b). Feeder 1309 includes chip tray 1310, and it usually has the rectangular shape of the length extended across whole joint head group. One end of chip tray 1310 is attached to from the pillar 1205a arm 1312a extended. The other end of chip tray 1310 is attached to from the pillar 1205b arm 1312b extended. In use, chip tray 1310 can move between loading position and feed position along arm 1312a and 1312b. When loading position, chip tray 1310 can at arm 1312a and 1312b from end farthest for joint head 1307a-e, in order to corresponding placement device (not shown) can on chip tray 1310 chip placement. When feed position, chip tray 1310 can at arm 1312a and 1312b from end nearest for joint head 1307a-e, in order to chip tray 1310 is positioned directly in below joint head 1307a-e. Feeder 1309 can be identical with feeder 720a and 720b of Fig. 7.
In one embodiment, described device includes substrate 1303 rather than substrate 1208. The two substrate can be essentially identical.
In one embodiment, device 1300 in use can run as follows.
In one embodiment, feeder 1309 can be configured at its loading position. Such as, by the placement device (not shown) of one or more correspondences, chip can be placed on chip tray 1310. In one embodiment, five chips can be placed along chip tray 1310 evenly spacedly, and wherein, each chip is corresponding in joint head 1307a-e. This can be found out by the chip 1314a-e of Figure 15 a. In one embodiment, adjoining the spacing between chip 1314a-e can be identical with the spacing adjoined between joint head 1307a-e.

In one embodiment, described substrate 1303 can be made to move in joint head 1307a-e location below in conjunction with platform. Specifically, each joint head 1307a-e carries the different chips in chip 1314a-e, and described substrate will have the corresponding chip binding site for each chip 1314a-e. Therefore, the position of substrate 1303 is intended to make chip binding site chip corresponding with them align. This location can be controlled by described controller.
In one embodiment, although above-mentioned operation is intended to make chip binding site be directed at their respective chip, but described alignment can be insufficient accurately. Therefore, visual system 1206 can move between joint head 1307a-e and substrate 1303, to determine being directed between each chip 1314a-e with its respective chip binding site. As previously described, the alignment mark on substrate 1303 can be used for providing the reference point on substrate 1303. The result of this process can be the calculating of a series of skew. Can for joint head 1307a-e with in conjunction with each offer skew in platform. Described skew can represent that chip 1314a-e is introduced the motion required to they corresponding binding site alignments on substrate 1303 by described joint head. Joint head skew definable X, Y and/or �� motion. Described X motion can by making joint head at moving on rails and/or by using its horizontal movement plate to provide. Definable X and Y motion is offset in conjunction with platform. Once carry out the offset movement of necessity, it is possible to start to combine.
In one embodiment, each in joint head 1307a-e can move both vertically to substrate 1303. For given joint head (such as, 1307a), once chip (such as, 1314a) contacts its binding site on substrate 1303, then move both vertically described in and can stop. Once described joint head contact substrate, then described joint head can apply pressure (that is, extruding force) to improve bond strength to chip. Before described binding operation and/or period, described joint head can heat chip to improve bond strength. Once described chip has combined to substrate, then described joint head such as discharges described chip by releasing suction. Described joint head moves both vertically away from substrate 1303 subsequently or the upper mounting plate that couples towards described joint head moves both vertically. Should be appreciated that joint head 1307a-e can move both vertically together or independently of one another as one.
In one embodiment, once all of joint head 1307a-e completes to combine, then, when preparing another binding operation, feeder 1309 can be reused, new chip to be fed to joint head 1307a-e.
In one embodiment, in given binding operation, all joint head 1307a-e can be used for combining to substrate 1303 chip. In another embodiment, one or more joint heads are not useable for combining to substrate chip. Such as, chip can be not added with being loaded onto the feeder for particular combination head, and described particular combination head can not perform any binding operation.
Figure 15 b illustrates the further operation of device 1300. Figure 15 b only illustrates a part for device 1300. Specifically, joint head 1307a-e and substrate 1303 are only shown.
In one embodiment, the pre-combined structure of joint head 1307a-e illustrates with dotted line (that is, chain-dotted line). In described pre-combined structure, the spacing between joint head 1307a-e can be relatively small, and the joint head namely adjoined can be close together. The combined structure solid line of joint head 1307a-e illustrates. In described combined structure, the spacing between joint head 1307a-e can be more wider than described pre-combined structure, and the joint head namely adjoined can farther separate. Should be appreciated that this operation can be realized by the joint head 1307a-e at slide on rails, as described in reference Fig. 9-11.
In one embodiment, adjoin the spacing between joint head 1307a-e to arrange according to the alignment mark on substrate 1303. Specifically, substrate 1303 can include the grid of the alignment mark of cross shape. Described grid can include multirow alignment mark and multiple row alignment mark, for instance, three row and ten arrange. Two example alignment labelling 1304a and 1304b indicate on Figure 15 b. Two alignment mark 1304a and 1304b adjoin alignment mark in going together mutually. The unit pitch of the spacing definable substrate 1303 between two alignment mark 1304a and 1304b. Described unit pitch can be about 20mm. Every pair of spacing adjoined between labelling in colleague mutually can be equal unit pitch. It can be equal unit pitch that in same column every pair adjoins the spacing between labelling.
In one embodiment, each alignment mark can represent the binding site for chip. Addition or alternatively, multiple alignment marks can represent the binding site (such as, as in Figure 14 d) of one single chip. Addition or alternatively, only some alignment marks can represent a part for binding site or binding site. In the embodiment of Figure 15 b, each alignment mark represents the center of binding site. How explained later device 1300 combines in the case.
In one embodiment, in combined structure, the spacing adjoined between joint head of joint head 1307a-e is set to the twice of unit pitch. In the first binding operation, chip can be combined the alignment mark to the top line of the alignment mark of substrate 1303 every an alignment mark by each joint head 1307a-e. Therefore, this first operated after, in the top line of alignment mark, will have the chip of combination every an alignment mark. In the second binding operation, the gap in described top line will be filled, so that each alignment mark in the top line of alignment mark will have the chip of combination. Subsequently, this process can continue on for each descending of alignment mark. In this way, chip can be combined each alignment mark to substrate 1303 by joint head 1307a-e. In one embodiment, can make in differing order, for instance, the first binding operation can be executed successively for each row, and then, the second binding operation can be executed successively for each row.
Figure 15 c illustrates the further operation of the device 1300 according to embodiment. Figure 15 c illustrates further substrate 1350, and it includes three row alignment marks and eight row alignment marks. Owing to device 1300 includes five joint head 1307a-e, and having eight row, a joint head in described joint head can be excluded outside described binding operation. Therefore, in one embodiment, by making joint head 1307e slide into the end of guide rail, joint head 1307e can be removed from described binding operation, as described in above with reference to Figure 11 b. Therefore, described dotted line represents all joint head 1307a-e pre-combined structure closely separated together. But, described solid line represents the joint head 1307a-d combined structure separated by double unit pitch, and joint head 1307e removes from substrate 1350, in order to joint head 1307e is not included in described binding operation. Therefore, similar binding operation can be performed, as described in above with reference to Figure 15 b, in order to use joint head 1307a-d to combine chip to each alignment mark on substrate 1350.
Figure 15 d illustrates the further operation of the device 1300 according to embodiment. Figure 15 d illustrates further substrate 1360, and it includes three row alignment marks and ten string alignment marks. Owing to device 1300 includes five joint head 1307a-e, and there are ten string, use all five joint head 1307a-e rather than to make the end that one or more joint head moves to guide rail be effective. Described binding operation will be identical with the binding operation of Figure 15 b; But, joint head 1307e will have in conjunction with three row, and other joint head 1307a-d will have in conjunction with two row. Therefore, in one embodiment, different joint heads can perform the binding operation of varying number. Such as, in conjunction with last chip (that is, the right column) chip tray 1309 of each row is placed a chip only. Described chip can with chip 1314e in identical position.
In one embodiment, adjoin the spacing between joint head 1307a-e to be determined based on predetermined algorithm by controller. Described algorithm can receive the quantity of the joint head such as described device, the binding site on substrate quantity, the spacing adjoining between binding site, as described in the input of binding site layout on substrate. Some or all in these inputs can such as be predefined by the operator of described device. Some or all in these inputs can be determined by the visual system of described device. Under any circumstance, based on described input, controller can determine that the quantity of stand-by joint head, the spacing adjoining between joint head and the combined amount performed by each joint head used.
Figure 16 illustrates binding sequence 1400 embodiment performed by device 1300 embodiment shown in Figure 17 a-d. Before described binding sequence starts, device 1300 is in the structure as described in above with reference to Figure 17 a.
Step 1402 can more specifically be found out from Figure 17 a. In step 1402, described substrate 1303 is made to move in joint head 1307a-e location below in conjunction with platform, in order to make chip relative to their corresponding binding site. Substrate 1303 includes three row alignment marks and ten string alignment marks. Owing to device 1300 includes five joint head 1307a-e, and having ten string, it is effective for using all five joint head 1307a-e. Described binding operation will be similar to that the binding operation of Figure 15 d. Therefore, joint head 1307e will have in conjunction with three row, and other joint head 1307a-d will have in conjunction with two row. As from 17a it can be noted that the joint head 1307a-e alignment mark that is positioned directly on substrate 1303 the most descending above. Additionally, there is the joint head above an alignment mark being positioned in lowermost row, but there are two unlapped alignment marks at the low order end of lowermost row.
Also in step 1402, feeder 1309 moves to feed position from loading position. Once be in feed position, joint head 1307a-e picks up the different chips chip 1314a-e from chip tray 1310.
Step 1404 can more specifically be found out from Figure 17 b. In step 1404, feeder 1309 returns its loading position. The alignment of each chip 1314a-e binding site (that is, alignment mark) corresponding to chip that visual system 1206 is then checked on its corresponding joint head. For each chip and binding site for, offset and used the image caught by described visual system to determine by controller. Described skew represents that the joint head introduced by chip with its corresponding binding site alignment and/or what motion in conjunction with platform are necessary. Such as, first visual system 1206 can catch chip 1314a image on joint head 1307a. It follows that described visual system can catch binding site image on substrate 1303. Required X, Y and/or the �� that be directed at described binding site that be introduced into needed for described chip moves and can be calculated by described controller. Described controller can promote joint head 1307a amount needed for chip is directed at by the motion of X, Y and/or �� direction with described binding site subsequently. This process is repeatable for other joint head 1307b-e subsequently. In one embodiment, the image for multiple chips and binding site can be captured, and can determine that multiple skew subsequently and perform alignment motion. When this process terminates, each chip 1314a-e is directed at its corresponding binding site on substrate 1303. In one embodiment, except joint head 1307b-e, described movable in conjunction with platform.
Step 1406 can more specifically be found out from Figure 17 c. In step 1406, visual system 1206 moves to its clear position from joint head 1307a-e. Each joint head 1307a-e performs their chip moving both vertically to substrate. Each joint head 1307a-e discharges its chip moving both vertically subsequently and leaves substrate and move to upper mounting plate. Joint head 1307a-e can as integrally moving both vertically. This operation can be similar to the operation of the step 1106 of reference Figure 11 as mentioned above. It follows that new chip 1370a-e is placed on feeder 1309 prepares follow-up binding operation. Such as, new chip 1370a-e is bonded to the different rows of colleague or the alignment mark mutually of alignment mark.

Should be appreciated that each joint head 1307a-e can move independently of one another as one together motion or joint head. Such as, namely all joint head 1307a-e can perform motion in X, Y and/or �� direction simultaneously together. Alternatively, a joint head can perform motion independent of at least one other joint head in X, Y and/or �� direction. Alternatively, the motion in a direction can be performed together by joint head, but can be independently executed by different joint heads in the motion of other direction. Such as, vertical (that is, Z-direction) motion can be performed by all joint heads as one. But, level (that is, X and/or Y) and/or angle (that is, ��) motion can be performed independent of other joint head by each joint head.
Figure 18 illustrates the blocked operation of the vision camera 1206 of the device 1300 according to embodiment. This operation is similar to the operation of Figure 14 d. But, although the operation of Figure 14 d is relevant to the alignment of its respective chip binding site to one single chip, but the operation of Figure 18 is relevant to the alignment of its corresponding binding site on substrate 1600 to five chips (1314a-e).
In one embodiment, as can be seen from Figure 18, chip 1314a is intended to combined so that two diagonal angles of chip 1314a are respectively aligned to two alignment marks on substrate 1600. Therefore, in operating first, visual system 1206 moves to catch chip 1314a at the image being positioned on the joint head 1307a above substrate 1600. In operating second, first visual system 1206 moves to position 1602, to catch the image of first alignment mark in two alignment marks. Subsequently, visual system 1206 moves to position 1604, to catch the image of second alignment mark in two alignment marks. At this point, visual system 1206 moves to perform the similar procedure for chip 1314b and binding site thereof subsequently. After this, this process is recycled and reused for each remaining chip, i.e. chip 1314c, 1314d and 1314e. Visual system 1206 is then returned to its clear position. The path of visual system 1206 is represented by arrow in figure 18.
In view of above-mentioned, catch the total of three image for each chip and binding site pair. Each image can compare with reference position, in order to determines whether described chip is directed at corresponding binding site. If there being two misalignments, then calculate skew, and make the described joint head in conjunction with platform and/or correspondence move to realize alignment. This process is similar to reference to the process described in Figure 14 d.
It may be noted that described controller can promote each joint head to move to alignment once the image catching correspondence. Alternatively, described controller can promote the wait of some or all joint heads that all joint heads are completed image capturing before promoting joint head to move to alignment.
