Claim:
1. A method of mounting an electronic component on a substrate using a mounting apparatus, the method comprising: preparing an apparatus comprising: moving the bonding tool toward the substrate with the first drive unit and then moving the bonding tool further toward the substrate with the second drive unit while determining with the position detection unit whether or not the bump and the film are in contact with each other based on the detection signal; setting the position of the bonding tool with respect to the substrate as a first reference position when it is determined in the step of determining that the bump and the film are in contact with each other; and bringing the bonding tool close to the substrate from the first reference position while heating the electronic component by controlling the second drive unit so as to provide a constant pressing force with which the bonding tool presses down the substrate and holding the position of the bonding tool along said path with the second drive unit based on the determination that bond metal between an electrode of the electronic component and an electrode of the substrate is thermally fused when the electronic component gets close to the substrate from the first reference position by a predetermined distance smaller than the thickness of a film of the bond metal.
