Pick and Place for ROM write handler}
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention [0001] The present invention relates to a ROMlite handler for storing a program in a semiconductor device, such as a PROM or Flash memory, and more particularly to a semiconductor for storing a tray and a program in which the semiconductor device is mounted and moved. The invention relates to a pick and place for transferring a semiconductor device between sockets in which a chip is seated.
In general, semiconductor devices, such as PROM or Flash memory, enter an initial program during the manufacturing process, and the program input process is automatically performed by a device called a ROM write handler. Is performed.
That is, when the tray on which the semiconductor device is mounted is transferred to the ROMlite handler, the semiconductor device is transferred from the tray to the socket portion of the handler, and a program is input in a state of being mounted in each socket arranged in the socket portion. When the input of the program is completed, the semiconductor device is transferred from the socket portion to the tray and transferred to the next process along the conveyor line.
Here, the work of transferring the semiconductor device between the tray and the socket portion is performed through a device called pick and place. An example of such pick and place is shown in FIG. 1.
As shown, the pick and place comprises a head part 1 and a conveying part 2.
The transfer part 2 is used to move the head part 1 between the tray (not shown) and the socket part (not shown) of the handler body, and a conventional XY robot is used.
The head part 1 has two head trains 10 in which four adsorption heads 12 are arranged in a row, and the lifting means 20 and the head trains which raise and lower these head trains 10 up and down ( It has the rotation means 30 which rotates 10). The head row 10 has an up-down cylinder 14 for raising and lowering each adsorption head 12 in addition to the adsorption head 12 described above. The rotating means 30 includes a ball spline shaft 32 having a support bracket 16 supporting two head rows 10 at its lower end, and an R-axis servo motor for rotating the ball spline shaft 32 ( Has 34). The ball spline shaft 32 and the R-axis servo motor 34 are connected via a drive pulley 38, a driven pulley 36, and a timing belt 37. The driven pulley 36 is splined to one outer peripheral surface of the ball spline shaft 32. Lifting means 20 is a ball screw shaft 42 installed in a vertical direction on one side of the frame 41 to be conveyed by the transfer unit 2 and the Z-axis servo motor 44 for rotating the ball screw shaft 42, And an elevating member 46 supporting the upper end of the ball spline shaft 32 of the rotating means 30 so as to be movable along the ball screw shaft 42.
The ball spline shaft is caused by the ball screw shaft 42 being rotated by the Z axis servo motor 44 and thus the elevating member 46 is moved along the ball screw shaft 42 in the vertical direction (Z axis direction). The head row 10 connected to the elevating member 46 is moved up and down through the 32. In addition, when the driving force of the R-axis servo motor 34 is transmitted to the driven pulley 36 through the drive pulley 38, the ball spline shaft 32 splined with the driven pulley 36 is rotated and supported at the lower end thereof. The head row 10 is rotated.
In the pick-and-place for a romite handler having such a configuration, the head part 1 is moved between the tray and the socket part by the conveying part 2, and the suction head 20 is moved by the lifting means 20 and the up-down cylinder 14. 12 is raised and lowered and transfers the semiconductor device D between the tray and the socket portion by attracting or mounting the semiconductor device D. FIG. At this time, since the mounting direction of the semiconductor device mounted on the tray 3 and the mounting direction of the semiconductor device of the socket portion 4 generally have a difference of 90 ° with each other, as shown in FIG. 2A, the R-axis servo motor 34 controls the mounting direction by driving the ball spline shaft 32 to rotate the head row 10 by 90 degrees.
However, conventionally, since the entire head row is rotated by the rotation of the ball spline shaft, when the pitch between the tray and the semiconductor device mounted on the socket is different from each other, even though the head has a plurality of adsorption heads, the plurality of the semiconductor devices are simultaneously adsorbed. And the impossible to mount.
That is, for example, as shown in FIGS. 2A and 2B, the vertical pitch P ve between the semiconductor devices mounted on the tray 3 is 36 mm, the horizontal pitch P ho is 25 mm, and the vertical pitch of the socket portion. P sv is 36 mm, and the pitch P he between the heads of the head rows is 36 mm.
In this case, the head 12 of the head row 10 cannot be adsorbed and mounted at the same time. That is, as shown in FIG. 2A, when the four rows of semiconductor devices D are simultaneously sucked from the tray 3 with the head rows 10 facing in the vertical direction, the head rows 10 are mounted when the head rows 10 are mounted in the socket portion 4. The head row 10 itself faces the horizontal direction in a state where the direction of the semiconductor device D adsorbed by the head 12 thereof is rotated so as to correspond to the mounting direction of the socket portion 4. Therefore, since the directions of the head row 10 and the socket portion 4 are perpendicular to each other, the plurality of semiconductor devices D adsorbed on the head row 10 cannot be mounted at the same time. It must be mounted while moving.
Otherwise, as shown in FIG. 2B, when the semiconductor device D adsorbed on the head row 10 is to be mounted on the socket portion 4 at the same time, when the semiconductor device D is adsorbed from the tray 3, the head row is held. The column 10 must be adsorbed in a state in which it is oriented in the horizontal direction, but since the pitch P he between the heads 12 and the horizontal pitch P he of the tray 3 do not coincide with each other, It is impossible to adsorb the semiconductor device D at the same time.
Accordingly, there is a disadvantage in that productivity is low due to a decrease in the work speed due to sequential adsorption or mounting when the semiconductor device D is transferred between the tray 3 and the socket portion 4.
The present invention has been made in view of the above, and when picking up the semiconductor device between the tray and the socket portion, it is possible to simultaneously adsorb and simultaneously install the head row unit, and the pick-and-place for the romite handler which can improve the working speed The purpose is to provide.
