Abstract

See full text

An apparatus for processing flexible tape for microelectronic assemblies includes a base having a top surface, a bottom surface and an aperture extending between the top and bottom surfaces, and a platform having a top surface for engaging a flexible tape used for making microelectronic assemblies, such as semiconductor chip packages. The platform is sized to fit within the aperture extending between the top and bottom surfaces of the base. The base is pivotally secured at one end of the platform so that when the base pivots with respect to the platform, the flexible tape engaged by the platform remains on the platform. The assembly also includes a carrier frame having a slot and a clamp sized to pass through the slot and the carrier frame and the aperture in the base for securing the flexible tape to the top surface of the platform as the base pivots with respect to the platform.
