Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of semiconductor equipment, and particularly relates to a wafer film sticking device. Background Art

[0002] Generally, the circuit side of a wafer, that is, the side where the chip functions are completed, is called the front side, and the other side is the back side. During the wafer processing, for various purposes, a thin film is often required to be attached to the surface of the wafer, and usually a wafer film sticking device is used to stick the film on the wafer. Specifically, the wafer is first vacuum adsorbed and then the film is stuck. For ultra-thin wafers, the warping situation is more serious, and it is easy to slide during film sticking, and manual assistance with both hands is required to fix the wafer. However, when the device is operating, the vacuum button needs to be manually operated to adsorb the wafer, which causes the operator to be unable to release both hands to assist in fixing the wafer, easily resulting in misalignment of the wafer film sticking, affecting the quality of the wafer, and reducing the yield rate of the chips. Summary of the Utility Model

[0003] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a wafer film sticking device to solve the problem that the current wafer film sticking device needs to manually turn on the vacuum adsorption, resulting in the inability to manually assist in fixing the wafer, and the wafer is prone to displacement and sliding.

[0004] To solve the above technical problems, the utility model provides a wafer film sticking device, which includes a vacuum adsorption unit and a foot switch connected to the vacuum adsorption unit. When the foot switch is depressed, it will drive the vacuum adsorption unit to adsorb the wafer, and when the foot switch is not depressed, it will drive the vacuum adsorption unit to release the wafer.

When the foot switch is depressed, it will drive the vacuum adsorption unit to adsorb the wafer, and when the foot switch is not depressed, it will drive the vacuum adsorption unit to release the wafer. With such a configuration, by setting a foot switch to control the adsorption or release of the wafer by the vacuum adsorption unit, it is not necessary for the operator to manually turn on or off the vacuum adsorption unit, liberating the hands of the operator to assist in fixing the wafer, ensuring that the wafer film is not misaligned, and improving the yield rate.

For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present utility model may be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0020] Refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2, the present utility model schematically provides a wafer film attaching device, which includes a vacuum adsorption unit and a foot switch (S1) connected to the vacuum adsorption unit. The vacuum adsorption unit can adsorb the wafer by means of vacuum adsorption. After the wafer is adsorbed, the operator can attach a film to the wafer. In an embodiment, the vacuum adsorption unit includes an adsorbing member, for example, a vacuum adsorption disc. A plurality of air suction holes are provided on the surface of the vacuum adsorption disc, and the wafer is adsorbed through the air suction holes. When the foot switch is depressed, it will drive the vacuum adsorption unit to adsorb the wafer, and when the foot switch is not depressed, it will drive the vacuum adsorption unit to release the wafer. Specifically, when the foot switch is depressed, it will drive the vacuum adsorption unit to open the internal vacuum channel, thereby vacuum-adsorbing the wafer. When the foot switch is not depressed, the internal vacuum channel of the vacuum adsorption unit is in a closed state and cannot adsorb the wafer. With such a configuration, by setting the foot switch to control the adsorption or release of the wafer by the vacuum adsorption unit, the operator steps on the foot switch with the foot to make the vacuum adsorption unit adsorb the wafer, or does not step on the foot switch to make the vacuum adsorption unit release the wafer, without the operator manually opening or closing the vacuum adsorption unit, liberating the hands of the operator to assist in fixing the wafer, ensuring that the wafer film attachment does not shift or slide, and improving the yield rate.

[0021] Preferably, the vacuum adsorption unit is used to gradually adsorb the wafer from the center of the wafer and in the direction from the inside to the outside. In this way, it is possible to avoid damage to the wafer caused by the vacuum adsorption unit adsorbing the wafer all at once.

[0022] Optionally, the wafer film attaching device further includes a manual switch (S2). When the manual switch is pressed, it will drive the vacuum adsorption unit to adsorb the wafer, and when the manual switch is not pressed, it will drive the vacuum adsorption unit to release the wafer. In this way, this embodiment still retains the function of manually opening and closing the vacuum adsorption unit.

[0023] Further, the vacuum adsorption unit includes an adsorbing member and a solenoid valve (U) provided on the adsorbing member. The manual switch and the foot switch are connected to the solenoid valve. The adsorbing member is, for example, a vacuum adsorption disc, and the adsorbing member is arranged on the vacuum pipeline. When the manual switch is pressed or the foot switch is depressed, it will cause the branch of the solenoid valve where the control circuit inside the wafer film attaching device is located to form a loop, thereby connecting the circuit inside the solenoid valve, and the solenoid valve is opened, so that the adsorbing member performs vacuum adsorption on the wafer.

[0024] Further, the wafer film attaching device further includes a vacuum indicator connected to the vacuum adsorption unit, which is used to indicate the vacuum degree of the vacuum adsorption unit.

[0025] Further, the wafer film laminating device further includes a temperature controller (thermostat) connected to the vacuum adsorption unit. Those skilled in the art can understand that the thermostat undergoes physical deformation inside the switch according to the temperature change of the working environment, thereby generating certain special effects, a series of automatic control components that generate conduction or disconnection actions, or the different principles of the working states of electronic components at different temperatures to provide temperature data for the circuit, so that the circuit can collect the temperature data. In this way, the temperature of the vacuum adsorption unit is collected.

[0026] Further, the wafer film laminating device further includes power switches (S3, S4), and the power switches are used to connect or disconnect the power supply (AC), so that the wafer film laminating device is connected to the power supply to start working, or disconnect the power supply to stop. Even further, the wafer film laminating device further includes a power indication unit, and the power indication unit is used to indicate the state of the power switch, such as indicating that the power switch is in the state of connecting to the power supply or disconnecting from the power supply. In one embodiment, the power indication unit may be a power indicator light (L), and the state of the power switch is indicated by the color change or brightness change of the power indicator light.

[0027] Further, the wafer film laminating device further includes a temperature adjustment switch, and the temperature adjustment switch is used to adjust the temperature of the vacuum adsorption unit to increase or decrease the temperature of the vacuum adsorption unit. Even further, the wafer film laminating device further includes a temperature adjustment indication unit, and the temperature adjustment indication unit is used to indicate the working state of the temperature adjustment switch, such as indicating that the temperature adjustment switch is in the state of increasing temperature adjustment or decreasing temperature adjustment. In one embodiment, the temperature adjustment indication unit may be temperature adjustment indicator lights (D1, D2), and the working state of the temperature adjustment switch is indicated by the color change or brightness change of the temperature adjustment indicator lights.

[0028] The usage process of the wafer film laminating device in this embodiment is as follows: First, turn on the power switch so that the wafer film laminating device is connected to the power supply to enter the standby state, then place the wafer on the vacuum adsorption unit, step on the foot switch so that the vacuum adsorption unit is turned on to adsorb the wafer, and finally the operator applies the film to the wafer with both hands.

[0029] Although the present utility model is disclosed above with preferred embodiments, the above embodiments are not intended to limit the present utility model. For any person skilled in the art, without departing from the scope of the technical solution of the present utility model, many possible changes and modifications can be made to the technical solution of the present utility model by using the technical content disclosed above, or modified into equivalent embodiments with equivalent changes.
