Abstract:
A method of fabricating a semiconductor device on a semiconductor wafer, the method comprising:adhering a carrier plate on an upper surface of the semiconductor wafer via a double-faced protective tape, the upper surface having a circuit pattern formed thereon; after said adhering, grinding an undersurface of the semiconductor wafer, while the semiconductor wafer is adhered to the carrier plate, to reduce a thickness of the semiconductor wafer; after said grinding, mounting the semiconductor wafer, including the carrier plate adhered thereto, on a dicing tape with the carrier plate facing the dicing tape; dividing the semiconductor wafer into separate semiconductor chips by dicing the semiconductor wafer together with the protective tape and the carrier plate; pushing out the separate semiconductor chip, by using a pushing member that pushes the separate semiconductor chip in a direction away from the dicing tape, and that pushes from a side of the semiconductor wafer adhered to the carrier plate; and bonding the undersurface of the semiconductor chip to a lead frame using a die-bonding material.
