Abstract

See full text

A method for manufacturing semiconductor chips from a semiconductor wafer, including the steps of: a) arranging the wafer on a surface of an elastic film stretched on a first support frame having dimensions much greater than the wafer dimensions, so that, in top view, a ring-shaped film portion separates this outer contour from the inner contour of the frame; b) performing manufacturing operations by using equipment capable of receiving the first frame; c) arranging, on the ring-shaped film portion, a second frame of outer dimensions smaller than the inner dimensions of the first frame; d) cutting the film between the outer contour of the second frame and the inner contour of the first frame and removing the first frame; and e) performing manufacturing operations by using equipment capable of receiving the second frame.
