Abstract

A semiconductor manufacturing device has a cooling pad with a plurality of movable pins. The cooling pad includes a fluid pathway and a plurality of springs disposed in the fluid pathway. Each of the plurality of springs is disposed under a respective movable pin. A substrate includes an electrical component disposed over a surface of the substrate. The substrate is disposed over the cooling pad with the electrical component oriented toward the cooling pad. A force is applied to the substrate to compress the springs. At least one of the movable pins contacts the substrate. A cooling fluid is disposed through the fluid pathway.
