Abstract

A chip component including a first electrode and a second electrode, a semiconductor device including a first land and a second land, and a printed wiring board are prepared. A first solder paste and a second solder paste are supplied to the printed wiring board. The chip component is placed on the printed wiring board so that the first electrode is in contact with the first solder paste and the second electrode is in contact with the second solder paste. The semiconductor device is placed on the printed wiring board so that the first land faces the first electrode and the second land faces the second electrode. The solder paste is heated and melted, the first land and the first electrode are bonded to each other, and the second land and the second electrode are bonded to each other.
