Claim:
A dispensing device for charging underfill agent into a gap between a substrate and a chip comprising: a storing unit for storing underfill agent; a chamber provided for containing a substrate to be charged with underfill agent and capable of being opened/closed; a dispenser provided in said chamber and discharging underfill agent introduced from said storing unit into said gap between said substrate and said chip; a pressure reducing unit connected directly to said chamber by a first passage containing a valve, said first pressure reducing unit reducing a pressure in said chamber at a predetermined vacuum pressure to make underfill agent without bubbles, prior to said discharge of underfill agent by said dispenser; and a tube between said storing unit and said dispenser, and wherein said pressure reducing unit is connected directly to said tube by a second passage containing a valve, for reducing a pressure in said tube at a predetermined vacuum pressure prior to introduction of underfill agent from said storing unit to said dispenser through said tube; wherein said storing unit comprises a first storing unit, a second storing unit and a three-way valve, and said first and second storing units are provided so as to be selectively communicated with said dispenser via said three-way valve; and wherein said three-way valve includes a first mode, a second mode and a third mode so that said first storing unit only communicates with said dispenser in said first mode; said second storing unit only communicates with said dispenser in said second mode; and said first storing unit, said second storing unit and said dispenser are disconnected from each other in said third mode.
