Abstract:
1. A method for mounting an electronic component, comprising: using a component holding member to suck and hold an electronic component having electrodes; performing positional alignment so that said electrodes of said electronic component and electrodes of a circuit board become bondable to each other with bonding members interposed therebetween; moving said component holding member, with said electronic component sucked and held thereon, toward said circuit board; detecting contact between said bonding members and one of maintaining to be generally constant a load actually generated from said bonding members contacting said one of while contact is maintained between said bonding members and said electrodes of said electronic component and said electrodes of said circuit board, while said electronic component is sucked and held on said component holding member, and while said load is maintained to be generally constant, heating and thereby initiating melting of said bonding members; and then cooling and thereby solidifying said bonding members; and further comprising, after initiating melting said bonding members,
