A method and apparatus for molding a flip chip semiconductor device are disclosed herein. A substrate having at least one air hole is provided. A chip is mounted on the substrate by multiple solder balls such that the air hole is beneath the chip and surrounded by the multiple solder balls. The substrate mounted with the chip is placed in a mold apparatus which defines at least one air channel aligning with the air hole, such that air can be exhausted via the air hole and the air channel when encapsulation material is filling the mold apparatus.
