Abstract: The present invention uses an ultraviolet ray to clean PCBs in packaging semiconductors, instead of using a plasma gas. Since the ultraviolet ray cleaning does not require a vacuum condition around an ultraviolet ray lamp, a guide belt for conveying the PCBs can be freely installed in such a manner that an ultraviolet ray cleaning tool and fabricating equipment are arranged in-line. This results in an in-line arrangement of an ultraviolet ray cleaning chamber and the fabricating equipment. Therefore, the PCBs can be introduced into fabricating processes immediately after cleaning and a long standby time problem of the PCB outside of the fabricating equipment is solved.
