Patent ID: 6939429

Claim:
A method of manufacturing a semiconductor apparatus comprising: a feeding step of feeding a long tape-like substrate in a longitudinal direction thereof; a pretreatment step of drying the substrate fed in the feeding step, at a pretreatment section; an application step of applying a heat curable adhesive to a predetermined position on the substrate which has been dried in the pretreatment step; a mounting step of mounting a semiconductur device to the heat curable adhesive applied in the application step; a bonding step of bonding the semiconductor device to the substrate by heating and curing the heat curable adhesive applied in the application step; a count step of counting the time the substrate is inactive; and a re-dry step of drying the substrate again, by returning the substrate in a reverse direction to the pretreatment section, if it is counted in the count step that the substrate is inactive for a predetermined period of time.
