  • Patent number: 6354480
    Abstract: A positioning apparatus includes: a stage having a flat placement surface on which a thin plate is mounted. The placement surface has a flat region which is slightly larger than and completely covers that of said thin plate. The placement surface also has lateral side edges. An optical detecting means is arranged above the stage for detecting a mark provided on the thin plate and has such a view that the mark can be caught by the view if the thin plate placed on the placement surface is within the flat region, but the mark cannot be caught by the view if the thin plate placed on the placement surface protrudes by a part thereof from the region of the placement surface. A movable part pushes the thin plate until it comes into contact with the lateral edge to move the thin plate so that the thin plate is brought within the flat region of the placement surface.

  • Publication number: 20010009302
    Abstract: A semiconductor device comprises a substantially flat interconnection substrate having an interconnection pattern formed on a surface thereof. A semiconductor element is mounted on the substantially flat interconnection substrate so that an electrode terminal of the semiconductor element is electrically connected to the interconnection pattern. A heat radiation plate is formed in a form of a sheet having a concave portion so as to cover the semiconductor element and is bonded on the surface of the substantially flat interconnection substrate. An external connection terminal is formed on the other surface of the substantially flat interconnection substrate so as to penetrate through the substantially flat interconnection substrate and be electrically connected to the interconnection pattern. The heat radiation plate is formed of a heat-resistant resin containing carbon fibers.
