Abstract

A mounting method is provided using a thermocompression head which can mount an electric component in a short time with high connection reliability. The method is provided for mounting an electric component on a wiring board by using a thermocompression head having an elastic pressure bonding member composed of an elastomer on a heatable metal head main body. In the method, after arranging an adhesive agent on a mounting region on the wiring board, an electric component is arranged on a mounting region, and the electric component is bonded on the wiring board by thermocompression by using the thermocompression head. At the time of performing thermocompression bonding, while pressing a top region of the electric component by a metal portion of the head main body, and adhesive in the vicinity of a side portion region of the electric component is pressed by a taper section of the elastic adhesive member.

Claims (6)

1. A method of mounting an electric component on a wiring board using a thermocompression head having an elastic pressure bonding member made of elastomer in a metal head main body made of heatable metal, the method comprising:

disposing an adhesive agent in a mounting region on the wiring board;

disposing the electric component in the mounting region; and

thermally compressing the electric component on the wiring board using the thermocompression head,

wherein the thermally compressing step presses a top region of the electric component by a metal portion of the head main body while pressing the adhesive agent in a vicinity of a side portion region of the electric component by the elastic pressure bonding member, wherein the metal portion directly contacts the electric component during pressing.

2. A method of mounting using the thermocompression head according to claim 1 , wherein a periphery of the elastic pressure bonding member is formed in a taper shape, and the adhesive agent in the vicinity of the side portion region of the electric component is pressed toward the side portion region by the taper portion.
