Abstract:
1. A method of molding a substrate containing a plurality of electronic devices, comprising the steps of: providing a carrier comprising a frame on which an adhesive film is attached, the frame being arranged to surround at least one mounting position of the adhesive film; mounting the substrate onto the at least one mounting position of the adhesive film of the carrier such that the frame surrounds the substrate, and, thereafter; placing the carrier in a mold such that the frame is located at a clamping area of the mold and the substrate is located at a molding area of the mold where molding cavities are located, wherein the mold comprises a top mold and a bottom mold which move relative to each other to close onto and apply a clamping force on the carrier when clamping the frame at the clamping area; clamping the frame at the clamping area while locating the electronic devices in the molding cavities; and molding the electronic devices located in the molding cavities with an encapsulant.
