Abstract
Abstract Lands formed on the top surface of substrate are covered by a printing screen having a printing pattern, in order to mount chip components on the substrate. A paste bonding agent is supplied to the lands through the printing pattern, and a layer of bonding agent is formed on the lands. In the printing method, a plurality of bonding agent layers that are mutually separated are formed on the land. The chip component is placed on the bonding agent layers of the land. As the chip component is pressed to the land, the bonding agent layers are smashed and spread on the land prior to applying heat to said bonding agent layers.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim
128 words
A method of mounting chip components on a substrate having electrically conductive lands formed on a top surface thereof which method comprises the steps of covering said lands with a printing screen having a printing pattern, forming a plurality of mutually separated bonding agent layers on said lands by applying said bonding agent to the lands through the printing pattern such that less than the full surface area of each of said lands is covered by said bonding agent layers; placing at least one of said chip components on said bonding agent layers; and pressing said chip components that have been placed on said bonding agent layers toward said land to spread said bonding agent layers on said lands prior to applying heat to said bonding agent layers.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
128 words
A method of mounting chip components on a substrate having electrically conductive lands formed on a top surface thereof which method comprises the steps of covering said lands with a printing screen having a printing pattern, forming a plurality of mutually separated bonding agent layers on said lands by applying said bonding agent to the lands through the printing pattern such that less than the full surface area of each of said lands is covered by said bonding agent layers; placing at least one of said chip components on said bonding agent layers; and pressing said chip components that have been placed on said bonding agent layers toward said land to spread said bonding agent layers on said lands prior to applying heat to said bonding agent layers.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
19 words
A method according to claim 1, wherein said bonding agent, employed for forming said bonding agent layers, is solder.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
33 words
A method according to claim 1, wherein a first bonding agent layer and a second bonding agent layer are formed spatially separated from each other during the formation of said bonding agent layers.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
17 words
A method according to claim 3, wherein said first and second bonding agent layers have identical shapes.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
16 words
A method according to claim 3, wherein said first and second bonding layers have different shapes.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
49 words
A method according to claim 1, wherein said printing screen employed for forming said bonding agent layers has a plurality of openings which are similar to said bonding agent layers to be formed on said lands, and wherein said bonding agent is supplied to the lands through said openings.
Claim 8
Independent Claim
108 words
A method of mounting chip components on a substrate having electrically conductive lands formed on a top surface thereof which method comprises the steps of covering said lands with a printing screen having a printing pattern; forming a plurality of mutually separated solder layers on said lands by employing said printing screen with a printing pattern which has a plurality of openings similar to the desired solder layers, and applying paste solder to said lands through said openings; placing said chip components on said solder layers; and pressing said chip components toward said lands to spread said solder layers on said lands prior to melting said solder layers.
