Abstract
A bonding apparatus comprises a base (16) for supporting a printed circuit board (7), an atmosphere cover (1) which has a concavity (1c) covering a semiconductor device (5) mounted on the printed circuit board (7) and which is formed of laser light transmitting material, driving means (1j) for moving the atmosphere cover (1) upwards and downwards related to the base (16), pressing means (2) and (3) provided in the atmosphere cover (1) for pressing the semiconductor device (5) toward the printed circuit board (7), and laser heating means (9) for bonding a lead terminal (6) of the semiconductor device (5) with a junction (7a) of the printed circuit board (7). The laser heating means (9) irradiates laser light (9a) through the atmosphere cover (1) to bonding agent (8) applied between a junction (6a) of the lead terminal (6) of the semiconductor device (5 ) and the junction (7a) of the printed circuit board (7), and heats and fuses the bonding agent (8) to bond both the junctions without touching the junctions thereof. Also, inside the atmosphere cover (1), atmosphere gas supplying means (1d), (1e), (1f) and (1g) are provided for supplying atmosphere gas (4) which is employed for preventing oxidation in the bonding.
