Abstract:
1. A ball transferring method comprising: providing a carrier board having a ball arrangement region, with said ball arrangement region having a surface directed downward; sucking balls onto said carrier board so as to arrange temporarily said balls in said ball arrangement region of said carrier board with said surface directed downward, wherein said balls have a diameter of less than 300 μm; in a state that said balls are fully firmly fixed to said ball arrangement region, removing excess balls other than balls that have been exactly sucked onto said ball arrangement region by using any two processes selected from the following three processes (a), (b) and (c): (a) applying gas blow through a nozzle to said ball arrangement region, wherein the gas blow nozzle is located below said ball arrangement region; (b) sucking said balls through a nozzle, wherein the sucking nozzle is located below said ball arrangement region; (c) applying vibration to said carrier board; thereafter, when transferring the remaining balls onto an objective substance with positional adjustment being made, applying another vibration to said carrier board so that said balls which have been sucked to be in contact with said ball arrangement region are allowed to drop off.
