Abstract

An arrangement apparatus includes a stage, an arrangement part, and a control part. The stage supports a substrate. The arrangement part holds a die and arranges multiple dies on the substrate supported by the stage. The control part has a map data indicating arrangement positions of the dies and generated based on a positional relationship among patterns formed by an exposure apparatus, and controls, based on the map data, relative positions between the stage and the arrangement part when arranging the dies on the substrate.

Claims (27)

1. An arrangement apparatus which arranges a plurality of dies on a substrate in correspondence with a plurality of patterns so as to bond to a wafer having the patterns formed by an exposure apparatus, the arrangement apparatus comprising:

a stage which supports the substrate;

an arrangement part which holds the die and arranges the dies on the substrate supported by the stage; and

a control part which has a map data indicating arrangement positions of the dies and generated based on a positional relationship among the patterns formed by the exposure apparatus, and controls, based on the map data, relative positions between the stage and the arrangement part when arranging the dies on the substrate.

2. The arrangement apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein, based on a deviation amount of positions between the dies and the patterns acquired in a state in which the dies arranged on the substrate and the wafer are bonded together, the control part updates the map data to cancel out the deviation amount.

3. The arrangement apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein

in each shot which comprises the patterns, the exposure apparatus forms the patterns on the wafer,

the map data comprises a positional relationship among the shots, and

the control part arranges the dies on the substrate based on the positional relationship among the shots.

4. The arrangement apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein

in each shot which comprises the patterns, the exposure apparatus forms the patterns on the wafer,

the map data comprises a positional relationship among the shots, and

the control part arranges the dies on the substrate based on the positional relationship among the shots.

5. An arrangement method of arranging a plurality of dies on a substrate in correspondence with a plurality of patterns so as to bond to a wafer having the patterns formed by an exposure apparatus, the arrangement method comprising:

a step of acquiring a map data indicating arrangement positions of the dies based on measurement of positions of the patterns on the wafer on which the patterns are formed by the exposure apparatus; and

a step of arranging the dies on the substrate based on the acquired map data.

6. The arrangement method according to claim 5 , further comprising:

a step of acquiring a deviation amount of positions between the dies and the patterns in a state in which the dies arranged on the substrate and the wafer are bonded together; and

a step of updating the map data to cancel out the deviation amount.

7. The arrangement method according to claim 5 , wherein

in each shot which comprises the patterns, the exposure apparatus forms the patterns on the wafer,

the map data comprises a positional relationship among the shots, and

in the arranging step, the dies are arranged on the substrate based on the positional relationship among the shots.

8. The arrangement method according to claim 6 , wherein

in each shot which comprises the patterns, the exposure apparatus forms the patterns on the wafer,

the map data comprises a positional relationship among the shots, and

in the arranging step, the dies are arranged on the substrate based on the positional relationship among the shots.
