Abstract:
A method of curing a die attach material for a semiconductor device which comprises the steps of:(a) providing a carrier containing therein a plurality of stacked leadframe strips, each said leadframe strip having a die attach material thereon;(b) ejecting one of said leadframe strips from said carrier into a chamber for heating said die attach selective to said leadframe strip;(c) heating said die attach material selective to said leadframe strip in said chamber to cure said die attach material while simultaneously exhausting volatile products of said cure from said chamber;(d) returning said leadframe strip to its original position in said carrier;(e) moving said carrier to place a different one of said leadframe strips in position for ejection from said carrier; and(f) ejecting said different one of said leadframe strips from said carrier.
