Abstract
A method for applying an underfill and edge coating to a flip chip is described. The method includes the steps of adhering a bumped wafer to an expandable carrier substrate, sawing the wafer to form individual chips, stretching the carrier substrate in a bidirectional manner to form channels between each of the individual chips, applying an underfill material to the bumped surfaces of the chips and around the edges of the chips, cutting the underfill material in the channels between the chips and removing the individual, underfill coated chips from the carrier.
