  • Publication number: 20120199988
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method of manufacturing an electronic device, that includes obtaining a stack of the first electronic component and the second electronic component, while placing a resin layer which contains a flux-active compound and a thermosetting resin, between the first terminals and the second terminals; bonding the first terminals and the second terminals with solder, by heating the stack at a temperature not lower than the melting point of solder layers on the first terminals, while pressurizing the stack using a fluid; and curing the resin layer. The duration from the point of time immediately after the start of heating of the stack, up to the point of time when the temperature of the stack reaches the melting point of the solder layers, is set to 5 seconds or longer, and 15 minutes or shorter.

  • Publication number: 20120118939
    Abstract: The process for manufacturing the semiconductor device and the apparatus, which achieve stable production of semiconductor devices with improved connection reliability, is presented. First terminals of circuit boards 1 are arranged to face the corresponding bumps of semiconductor chips 2, respectively, and the resin layer 3 is disposed between the respective first terminals and the respective bumps to form laminates, and the laminates are simultaneously compressed from a direction of lamination, while heating a plurality of laminates. In such case, the diaphragm 54 disposed in a heating furnace 51 is abutted against a plurality of laminates or a member 531 to elastically deform the members while a plurality of laminates is heated in the heating furnace 51, so that laminates are simultaneously compressed from a direction of lamination, while heating thereof in a vacuum.
