Die bonding apparatus, die picking up apparatus and die picking up method
A die bonding apparatus includes a work supply/transfer portion for transferring a substrate; a bonding portion for conducting bonding of a die on the substrate; a wafer supply portion for supplying a wafer having the die thereon; and a controller portion for controlling equipment, wherein the wafer supply portion has a push-up unit for pushing up a dicing tape from a lower part, for separating the die from the dicing tape, and the push-up unit has a suction opening portion, which is configured to suck the dicing tape with vacuum, a push-up portion, which is made of an elastic body, sealing a fluid or a power therein, and is configured to push up the dicing tape, a cylinder, which is configured to apply pressure to the push-up portion, and an air supply means for supplying an air for changing the pressure within the cylinder through control of the controller portion.
1. A die bonding apparatus, comprising:
a work supply/transfer portion, which is configured to transfer a substrate;
a bonding portion, which is configured to conduct bonding of a die on said substrate transferred;
a wafer supply portion, which is configured to supply a wafer having said die thereon; and
a controller portion, which is configured to control each equipment, wherein
said wafer supply portion has a push-up unit, which is configured to push up a dicing tape from a lower part, for separating said die from the dicing tape, and
said push-up unit has a suction opening portion, which is configured to suck said dicing tape with vacuum, a push-up portion, which is made of an elastic body, sealing a fluid or a powder therein, and is configured to push up said dicing tape, a cylinder, which is configured to apply pressure to said push-up portion, and an air supply means for supplying an air for changing the pressure within the cylinder through control of said controller portion,
wherein said push-up portion has two diaphragms, which are disposed on a side of said dicing tape and on a side of said air supply means, respectively, and said fluid or said powder is sealed between the two diaphragms, and
wherein said cylinder portion as a whole is separated into an upper push-up portion of a fluid or a powder chamber and a lower cylinder of a high-pressure air chamber via a lower surface diaphragm of the two diaphragms.
2. The die bonding apparatus, as described in the claim 1 , wherein said push-up portion is provided in an inside of said cylinder, and said elastic body deforms depending on the pressure of said cylinder; thereby separating said die from said dicing tape.
3. A die picking up apparatus, comprising:
a vacuum chamber of a predetermined degree of vacuum;
a suction opening portion having plural numbers of suction openings to be connected with said vacuum changer, for sucking a dicing tape through vacuum;
a push-up portion, which is made of an elastic body sealing a fluid or a powder therein, and is configured to push up said dicing tape from below;
a cylinder, which is configured to apply pressure to said push-up portion; and
an air supply means for supplying an air for changing the pressure within said cylinder,
wherein said push-up portion has two diaphragms, which are disposed on a side of said dicing tape and on a side of said air supply means, respectively, and said fluid or said powder is sealed between the two diaphragms, and
wherein said cylinder portion as a whole is separated into an upper push-up portion of a fluid or a powder chamber and a lower cylinder of a high-pressure air chamber via a lower surface diaphragm of the two diaphragms.
4. The die picking up apparatus, as described in the claim 3 , wherein said push-up portion is provided in an inside of said cylinder, and said elastic body deforms depending on the pressure of said cylinder, and the deformation separates said die from said dicing tape.
5. A die picking up method, in an apparatus having a push-up unit, having: a vacuum chamber of a predetermined degree of vacuum; a suction opening portion having plural numbers of suction openings to be connected with said vacuum changer, for sucking a dicing tape through vacuum; a push-up portion, which is made of an elastic body sealing a fluid or a powder therein, and is configured to push up said dicing tape from below; a cylinder, which is configured to apply pressure to said push-up portion; and an air supply means for supplying an air for changing the pressure within said cylinder, comprising the following steps of:
positioning a center of said push-up portion and a suction nozzle at a center of a die on a wafer, which is attached on said dicing tape and is to be picked up;
rising up said push-up unit, so as to contact an upper surface of said suction opening portion closely onto said dicing tape, through said plural numbers of suction openings;
increasing pressure of an air within said cylinder, so as to push an upper surface of said push-up portion within said cylinder upward;
lowering the pressure of the air within said cylinder, so as to dent the upper surface of said push-up portion; and
separating said die from said dicing tape,
wherein said push-up portion has two diaphragms, which are disposed on a side of said dicing tape and on a side of said air supply means, respectively, and said fluid or said powder is sealed between the two diaphragms, and
wherein said cylinder portion as a whole is separated into an upper push-up portion of a fluid or a powder chamber and a lower cylinder of a high-pressure air chamber via a lower surface diaphragm of the two diaphragms.
