Abstract:
A mold for use for fabricating a semiconductor device, comprising:an upper mold; and a lower mold disposed so as to face said upper mold, said lower mold supporting a semiconductor substrate thereon, said semiconductor substrate including semiconductor devices having bump electrodes, said upper mold comprising: a press plate pressing a resin tablet disposed on said semiconductor substrate to form a resin layer covering said semiconductor substrate with a thickness of 100 &mgr;m or less; a fixing mechanism provided on a press head, said fixing mechanism carrying said press plate movably such that said press plate is tiltable with respect to a nominal plane perpendicular to a direction connecting said upper mold and said lower mold, said fixing mechanism including a spherical bearing surface, and a lock mechanism of said press plate, said lock mechanism locking said press plate with respect to said fixing mechanism in a locked state and unlocking said press plate with respect to said fixing mechanism in an unlocked state.
