Abstract:
1. A semiconductor device manufacturing equipment, comprising: a supporting member having a plurality of exhaust holes and a plurality of grooves; and a dicing blade which dices a substrate supported on one surface of the supporting member along dicing lines to divide the substrate into a plurality of semiconductor devices, the one surface including a wafer area and an odd piece area, wherein in a plan view, an edge of the one surface of the supporting member overlaps one of the semiconductor devices, located at an outermost position of the substrate, and lies inside one of the dicing lines, located at an outermost position of the substrate, a height of an edge of the one surface of the supporting member is larger than a thickness of the substrate, and the plurality of grooves are provided to prevent interference between the dicing blade and the supporting member.
