Specifically, the roller brush assembly 310 of the tin removal device 300 brushes off the solder at the bottom of the semiconductor chip 10 to avoid residual solder on the semiconductor chip 10 and affect the subsequent test results. Optionally, the roller brush assembly 310 is arranged above the conveying device 100. When the conveying device 100 conveys the semiconductor chip 10 to pass under the roller brush assembly 310, the roller brush assembly 310 contacts the bottom of the semiconductor chip 10, thereby brushing off the solder at the bottom of the semiconductor chip 10.

In this embodiment, the roller brush assembly 310 is movably arranged, and under the drive of the driving mechanism, the roller brush assembly 310 can move with the mounting plate in the workspace. Specifically, when the conveying device 100 conveys the semiconductor chip 10 to the detinning station, the driving mechanism drives the mounting plate to move so that the roller brush assembly 310 contacts the semiconductor chip 10, thereby brushing the solder at the bottom of the semiconductor chip 10 through the roller brush assembly 310. After the preset detinning time, the driving mechanism drives the mounting plate to move so that the roller brush assembly 310 is separated from the semiconductor chip 10, and the detinning operation is completed. The conveying device 100 then conveys the semiconductor chip 10 that has completed the detinning to the next station, such as a test station, to perform subsequent process operations. Among them, the driving mechanism can be a collaborative multi-axis robot arm, a spatial XYZ drive module, etc., which is set according to actual conditions. This is only exemplary and not restrictive.

Optionally, the first driving assembly includes a driving drum, a driven drum and a motor connected to one end of the driving drum. The driving drum and the driven drum are respectively arranged at opposite ends of the conveying frame 110. The two ends of the conveyor belt 120 are respectively sleeved on the driving drum and the driven drum. The driving drum is driven to rotate by the motor to make the conveyor belt 120 run. This is only exemplary and not restrictive.
[0051] Among them, Figure 4As shown, when the semiconductor chip 10 is placed on the conveyor belt 120, it is positioned by the positioning assembly on the conveyor belt 120.

The air gun 220 is mounted on the mounting frame 210, and the air outlet end of the air gun 220 faces the conveying surface of the conveying device 100. Specifically, when the conveying device 100 conveys the semiconductor chip 10 to the hot tinning station, the air outlet end of the air gun 220 blows hot air to heat the solder at the bottom of the semiconductor chip 10. After a preset heating time, the air outlet end of the air gun 220 stops blowing air, and the conveying device 100 conveys the semiconductor chip 10 that has completed the hot tinning to the next station, such as the detinning station, to perform subsequent process operations. The air gun 220 is a device that uses electric heat to heat a heat conductor (usually a heating tube) to heat a heat storage body (usually air) to a high temperature, and then sprays hot air toward the object to be processed.

The visual inspection device 500 may include a manipulator and an image acquisition mechanism, and the image acquisition mechanism is connected to the execution end of the manipulator. Under the drive of the manipulator, the image acquisition mechanism can move in the detection workspace and reach the semiconductor chip 10, and then can collect the bottom image of the semiconductor chip 10 to detect whether the tin removal effect of the semiconductor chip 10 meets the requirements. The image acquisition mechanism may include a visual camera, and the manipulator may be a collaborative multi-axis manipulator, a spatial XYZ drive module, etc., which are set according to actual conditions. This is only exemplary and not restrictive. When the test result is qualified, the subsequent chip test process operation can be performed; as an optional implementation, when the test result is unqualified, the semiconductor chip 10 can be re-detinned or unloaded.
[0056] In some embodiments, reference Figure 2The semiconductor chip automatic test equipment also includes a sorting device 600, which is arranged at the outgoing end of the conveying device 100 and is used to sort the semiconductor chips 10 that have passed the test and the semiconductor chips 10 that have failed the test. In this embodiment, after the testing device 400 has tested the semiconductor chip 10, the test result of whether it is qualified is uploaded to the main control module, and the conveying device 100 continues to convey the semiconductor chip 10, and conveys the semiconductor chip 10 to the sorting device 600. The main control module issues a control instruction to the sorting device 600 according to the test result. The sorting device 600 sorts the semiconductor chips 10 that have passed the test and the semiconductor chips 10 that have failed the test according to the control instruction issued by the main control module, for example, sorting the semiconductor chips 10 that have passed the test to the qualified product placement area / position, and sorting the semiconductor chips 10 that have failed the test to the unqualified product placement area / position. By sorting the semiconductor chips 10 after testing using the sorting device 600, semiconductor chips 10 that have passed the test and semiconductor chips 10 that have failed the test can be automatically classified without human intervention, thereby further improving the degree of automation.
[0057] The structure of the sorting device 600 can be various, for example:

The transmission unit can be a gear transmission unit, a pulley transmission unit, etc., which is not limited.
[0063] Specifically, the sorting process of the sorting device 600 is as follows: when the semiconductor chip 10 reaches the outgoing end of the conveying device 100, the semiconductor chip 10 is automatically dropped or placed on the receiving plate 610 by other means (such as being grabbed by a robot). Then, according to the test result, the second driving component drives the sorting paddle 620 to rotate to move the semiconductor chip 10 on the receiving plate 610 and move it to the corresponding placement area to achieve the sorting and placement of the semiconductor chips 10 that have passed the test and the semiconductor chips 10 that have failed the test. For example, when the test result of the semiconductor chip 10 is a short circuit, the second driving component drives the sorting paddle 620 to rotate 180° clockwise to move the semiconductor chip 10 to the unqualified product placement area; when the test result of the semiconductor chip 10 is normal, the second driving component drives the sorting paddle 620 to rotate 180° counterclockwise to move the semiconductor chip 10 to the qualified product placement area.
