A system includes a factory interface, a load port connected to the factory interface, and a system controller. The system controller is to, responsive to detecting that a container is received at the load port, determine a type of parts for storage at the container. One or more mapping patterns associated with the determined type of parts is identified. A detection system of robot arm(s) of the factory interface is moved according to the identified mapping pattern(s) to detect one or more parts stored by the container. A mapping of the container is determined based on the movement of the robot arm(s). The mapping indicates regions of the container that stores detected parts and a position of each of the detected parts. Based on the mapping, the robot arm(s) either remove a detected part form the container or place an additional part in the container.

The present invention relates to a chip counter, which transmits an X-ray beam through a tape reel around which a tape having a plurality of semiconductor chips mounted in a row therein is wound, acquires an image scattered or diffracted by the semiconductor chips, and processes the acquired image, so as to count the number of the semiconductor chips, wherein: the X-ray beam transmitted through the tape reel (1) is sensed by a fluorescent intensifying screen (60); a fluorescent light emitted from the fluorescent intensifying screen (60) according to the sensing of the X-ray beam is captured by a camera (70), so that the number of the semiconductor chips is counted from an image in which the semiconductor chips are displayed by a dotted image; and the camera (70) is protected by an X-ray beam shielding member (100: 110; 120; and 130).
摘要:
A method and apparatus for soldering a chip (1a) to a substrate (3). A chip carrier (8) is provided between a flash lamp (5) and the substrate (3). The chip (1a) is attached to the chip carrier (8) on a side of the chip carrier (8) facing the substrate (3). A solder material (2) is disposed between the chip (1a) and the substrate (3). The flash lamp (5) generates a light pulse (6) for heating the chip (1a). The heating of the chip (1a) causes the chip (1a) to be released from the chip carrier (8) towards the substrate (3). The solder material (2) is at least partially melted by contact with the heated chip (1a) for attaching the chip (1a) to the substrate (3).
摘要:
A method includes identifying a wafer position for a plurality of die on a wafer, storing the wafer position for each of the plurality of die in a database, dicing the wafer into a plurality of singulated die, positioning each of the singulated die in a die position location on a tray, and storing the die position on the tray for each of the singulated die in the database. The database includes information including the wafer position associated with each die position. The tray is transported to a processing tool, and at least one of the plurality of singulated die is removed from the die position on the tray and processed in the processing tool. The processed singulated die is replaced in the same defined location on the tray that the singulated die was positioned in prior to the processing. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Handling devices and methods for handling microelectronic assemblies are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, a frame includes a first end portion, a second end portion that is spaced along a longitudinal axis from the first end portion, a first side portion that couples the first and second end portions, and a second side portion that couples the first and second end portions and is spaced along a lateral axis from the first side portion. An insert is releasably disposed on the frame and includes a plurality of pockets, with individual pockets positioned to releasably receive a respective one of the microelectronic assemblies. A retainer is positioned to secure and release the insert with respect to the frame.

A molded container may include a unitary base. The base may include projections designed to secure, support, position, and/or protect one or more objects held in the molded container. The projections may be spaced to allow access to objects held in the base. The projections may include ledges and/or lips. A molded container may include a lid. An inner surface of the lid may have protrusions to hold objects in place in the molded container. Closure portions of the lid may snap securely on the base. A lid may be attached to a base or removable. A separate lid may include guides to facilitate placement of the lid on the base. In an embodiment, a base of a molded container may fit in the lid of the molded container. A lid and/or a base of a molded container may be designed to allow stacking of two or more molded containers.

A carrier (30) for thin flat electronic devices (36) is provided which has a high volumetric efficiency and is adapted for use with automatic handling equipment. The carrier (30) comprising a hollow tube (31) having a longitudinal interior bore (35) in which is placed a longitudinal cage of metal rails (38) which surround, guide, and hold the devices (36) in a stacked relationship. At least six rails (38) are required to avoid binding and jamming of devices (36) in bore (35). End caps (33a-b) and a moveable resilient plug (34) are used to retain the devices (36) firmly but gently in place to prevent chipping and scratching of the devices (36) during handling and shipment of the carrier (30), and to vary the capacity of the carrier (30). The carrier (30) is rugged, reuseable, and has a volumetric efficiency (devices/unit volume) three to eighteen times higher than prior art egg-crate type device carriers.
摘要:
A container for semiconductor chips is disclosed. The container includes an annular ring having a first diameter and an annular lower casing having a second diameter, greater than the first diameter. The annular lower container houses the annular ring. A plastic film, holding the semiconductor chips, is stretched over an annular opening in the annular ring. An upper container mates with the lower container to form an air-tight housing for the annular ring. The upper container is shaped in such a manner that the upper container fixes the annular ring in place but does not contact the semiconductor chip.
