[0168] Reference Figure 6A , the placement tool BH places the semiconductor device 152 on the substrate. The placement tool BH may be, for example but not limited to, an adhesive brush head. The placement tool BH picks up the semiconductor device 152 and places the semiconductor device 152 on the substrate 11 for bonding. The side portion of the placement tool BH ( Figure 6B not indicated in the figure) extends between the semiconductor device 151 and the semiconductor device 152. The distance D2 represents the gap between the semiconductor device 151 and the semiconductor device 152. In order to avoid contact between the placement tool BH and the semiconductor device 151, the distance D2 must be greater than 2 mm. Minimizing the gap between the semiconductor device 151 and the semiconductor device 152 may be impacted or hindered by the size of the placement tool BH.

[0169] Figure 6C Description of a magnified view of a part of the dotted circle C5 as shown in Figure 6B according to some embodiments of the present application.

[0170] To obtain better yield and signal quality, when the placement tool BH places the semiconductor device 152, the conductive structure 141 should be aligned with the connection element 631. The distance D3 represents the distance between the axis passing through the center of the conductive structure 141 and another axis passing through the center of the connection element 631. In other words, the distance D3 represents the misalignment between the conductive structure 141 and the connection element 631, which is approximately 1 - 2 μm. As a result, the semiconductor device package 6 having the semiconductor device 152 placed by the placement tool BH may have relatively greater misalignment and poorer signal quality compared to the semiconductor device package 1a having the semiconductor device 151 placed by the placement tool 41 Figure 4A described and illustrated.

[0171] As used herein, the terms "substantially", "generally", "essentially" and "about" are used to describe and account for minor variations. When used in connection with an event or circumstance, the terms can refer to instances where the event or circumstance occurs precisely as well as instances where the event or circumstance occurs very nearly. By way of example, when used in connection with a numerical value, the terms can refer to a range of variation that is less than or equal to ±10% of the numerical value, such as less than or equal to ±5%, less than or equal to ±4%, less than or equal to ±3%, less than or equal to ±2%, less than or equal to ±1%, less than or equal to ±0.5%, less than or equal to ±0.1%, or less than or equal to ±0.05%. By way of example, if the difference between two numerical values is less than or equal to ±10% of the average of the values (e.g., less than or equal to ±5%, less than or equal to ±4%, less than or equal to ±3%, less than or equal to ±2%, less than or equal to ±1%, less than or equal to ±0.5%, less than or equal to ±0.1% or less than or equal to ±0.05%), then the two numerical values can be considered to be "substantially" or "about" the same. By way of example, "substantially" parallel can refer to a range of angular variation that is less than or equal to ±10° relative to 0°, such as less than or equal to ±5°, less than or equal to ±4°, less than or equal to ±3°, less than or equal to ±2°, less than or equal to ±1°, less than or equal to ±0.5°, less than or equal to ±0.1°, or less than or equal to ±0.05°. By way of example, "substantially" perpendicular can refer to a range of angular variation that is less than or equal to ±10° relative to 90°, such as less than or equal to ±5°, less than or equal to ±4°, less than or equal to ±3°, less than or equal to ±2°, less than or equal to ±1°, less than or equal to ±0.5°, less than or equal to ±0.1°, or less than or equal to ±0.05°.

[0172] If the displacement between two surfaces does not exceed 5 μm, does not exceed 2 μm, does not exceed 1 μm or does not exceed 0.5 μm, then the two surfaces can be considered to be coplanar or substantially coplanar. If the displacement of a surface relative to a flat plane between any two points on the surface does not exceed 5 μm, does not exceed 2 μm, does not exceed 1 μm or does not exceed 0.5 μm, then the surface can be considered to be planar or substantially planar.

[0173] As used herein, the terms "conductive", "electrically conductive" and "conductivity" refer to the ability to transfer current. Conductive materials generally denote those materials that present little or no opposition to the flow of current. One measure of conductivity is Siemens (S) / meter (S / m). Generally, conductive materials have a conductivity greater than about 10 4 S / m (e.g., at least 10 5 S / m or at least 10 6A material with a conductivity of [[ID=]]S / m). The conductivity of a material can sometimes vary with temperature. Unless otherwise specified, the conductivity of a material is measured at room temperature.

[0174] As used herein, unless the context clearly dictates otherwise, the singular terms "a / an" and "the" may include plural referents. In the description of some embodiments, a component being provided "on" or "above" another component may cover the case where the former component is directly on the latter component (e.g., in physical contact with the latter component), as well as the case where one or more intermediate components are located between the former component and the latter component.

[0175] Unless otherwise specified, spatial descriptions such as "above", "below", "on", "left", "right", "down", "top", "bottom", "vertical", "horizontal", "side", "higher than", "lower than", "upper", "on top", "below", "downward", etc. are indicated with respect to the orientation shown in the figures. It should be understood that the spatial descriptions used herein are for illustrative purposes only, and the actual implementations of the structures described herein can be spatially arranged in any orientation or manner, with the proviso that the advantages of the embodiments of the present disclosure are not prejudiced by such an arrangement.

[0176] Although the present disclosure has been described and illustrated with reference to specific embodiments thereof, such description and illustration do not limit the present disclosure. Those skilled in the art will clearly understand that various changes can be made and equivalent components can be substituted within the embodiments without departing from the true spirit and scope of the present disclosure as defined by the appended claims. The figures may not necessarily be drawn to scale. Due to variables in manufacturing processes, etc., there may be differences between the artistic representations and the actual devices in the present disclosure. There may be other embodiments of the present disclosure that are not specifically described. The specification and the drawings should be regarded as illustrative rather than restrictive. Modifications can be made to adapt the specific circumstances, materials, compositions of matter, methods, or processes to the objectives, spirit, and scope of the invention. All such modifications are intended to be within the scope of the appended claims. Although the methods disclosed herein have been described with reference to specific operations performed in a particular order, it should be understood that these operations can be combined, subdivided, or reordered without departing from the teachings of the present disclosure to form equivalent methods. Therefore, unless specifically indicated herein, the order and grouping of operations are not limitations of the present disclosure.
