Abstract
Abstract This die-bonding method relates to an improvement in a method to apply high pressure air to a resin vessel under a predetermined discharge condition to discharge the resin onto a portion subject to bonding, thus to adhesively join or connect a semiconductor chip to the portion subject to bonding by the resin discharged. This method includes a process for detecting a pressure waveform applied to the resin vessel, and a process for controlling the discharge condition to compensate the difference between the pressure waveform detected and a predetermined reference pressure waveform so that a predetermined resin quantity is discharged at all times even when the quantity of resin within the resin vessel varies. There is also provided an apparatus for implementing this die-bonding method, which includes a correction circuit for performing the above compensating operation.
