Publication number: 20240021557Abstract: This invention provides a placement area with an enlarged bump pitch while avoiding the risk of underfill void generation in the bump process. The number of bumps is not changed, but the bump pitch at the center is arranged in parallel with the drying direction of the flip-chip process in the drying direction, and an arrangement area in which n rows are enlarged by +b(?m) bump pitch is made, and the chip area is finely adjusted. According to the invention, with respect to the dry air direction after flux cleaning, the power of the dry air does not change for creating a minute bump enlarged area parallel to the air in the central portion.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 13, 2022Publication date: January 18, 2024Inventor: Kazuo SAKAMOTO

Patent number: 11809621Abstract: A state of a user of a mobile terminal having a display for displaying an image may be estimated. A sightline detector detects a sightline of the user of a mobile terminal and processing circuitry is configured to estimate a state of the user. The processing circuitry is configured to determine a top-down index value that is correlated with an attention source amount allocated to top-down attention of the user with respect to an image displayed on a display of the mobile terminal. The processing circuitry is configured to determine a bottom-up index value correlated with the attention source amount allocated to bottom-up attention of the user with respect to the image displayed on the display. The processing circuitry is configured to estimate the user state including an attention function degraded state based on the top-down index value and the bottom-up index value.Type: GrantFiled: February 18, 2021Date of Patent: November 7, 2023Assignee: MAZDA MOTOR CORPORATIONInventors: Koji Iwase, Kazuo Sakamoto, Akihide Takami
