The high-speed rotation of the sheet cuts the dome 1 on which the circuit layer has been formed. In order to facilitate the cutting of the crystal, a plurality of mutually intersecting cutting ridges are usually provided: the wafer 1 is bounded A plurality of wafers 10 are taken out. In order to reduce the cost, the industry has no difficulty in finding a wafer, and thus the distance between the wafers and the wafers is =, correspondingly, the width of the wafer cutter 12 is also required. Thinner and thinner; the thinner the blade, the longer the life of the blade; and the lower the cutting radius, the lower the productivity and yield of the cutting, resulting in a lower cost per wafer than the previous one. m Μ 第 — 图 图 为 为 为 为 为 为 为 为 为 为 为 为 为 现行 现行 现行 现行 现行 现行 现行 现行 现行 现行 现行 现行 现行 现行 现行 现行 现行 现行 现行 现行 现行 现行 现行 现行 现行 现行 现行 现行 现行 现行The scribe line 21 between adjacent wafers 2G is very small; #中, adjacent wafer The short side 201 ❾ 20 pitch is a wide scribe line 211, and the long side 202 of the adjacent wafer 20 is spaced apart by a long cut Η 〗 〖 «月 第二 second map 第三 and the third figure β, when the blade 12 Cutting Road 5 200947542 ^ When cutting "partial wide cutting lane 2111 and partial long cutting lane 2121 cutting", the crucible is cut and lost by the blade 12, after cutting, the side of the wafer 2 is only slightly edged, and some even It will cut to the wafer 20, so the wafer 20 is often cut after the cutting of the dicing street 21 by the blade 12. In recent years, the internal cutting of the laser (StealthDidng) technology changes the crystal structure of the stone to the crystal through the laser. Stress is generated inside the circle, so that the desired wafer is separated, and the cutting track can be close to zero loss. The cutting channel IS is very small and has good cutting quality. Therefore, the industry has introduced lasers for wafers. Cutting. When the laser is used to cut the wafer, the wafer needs to be re-arranged to reduce the cutting = /, and the related process equipment needs to be adjusted. Therefore, the well is still produced during the transition period: In terms of improving the cutting quality, Rate, lead laser Cutting technology is also a matter of urgency, so there is a consideration of laser cutting on the original wafer. ❹ Because the short edges of the scanning sheet that can obtain continuity when the multiple wafers are closely arranged leave only a slight edge. 2::=Resection's for the cutting of the wafer, because the laser is not flawed; the shot (four) wafer is crystallized to leave its complete edge, applied to the contact image sensing single edge irrrgrs〇r, cis) In the case of a wafer, the wide scribe line of the laser-cut original wafer is required to obtain a high-resolution scan image because the short side of the wafer has a limited ί: ΓΓ, arranging a plurality of wafers. One: ΐΓΑ and fourth Figure Β, is a laser-cutting alternative, on the original wafer 2, the long side of the adjacent wafer 2〇2〇2 long cut 6 200947542. The channel 212 is cut by a laser, and two laser cuts are performed on the wide cut track 211 of the short side 1 of the adjacent wafer 2, and the width is removed by cutting the two lasers. The scribe line 2111; however, since the distance of the partial wide scribe line 2111 of the known edge 201 of the adjacent wafer 20 is too small (only about 〇 2 mm), the laser 22 is easily attached to the two sides of the wafer such as the short side 201 after being cut. It is difficult to separate and remove separately. How to overcome the shortcomings of current technology is a problem that needs to be solved urgently. ❹ [Summary of the Invention] The main purpose of the invention is to provide a contact image sensing unit wafer division=cutting I:? between the short sides of the wafer, without changing the wafer scribe line distance from the original wafer.

For the purpose of the above, the wafer cutting method of the thousand measuring unit of the present invention comprises: providing a wafer of two-contact image sensing sheets, a distance between short sides of adjacent wafers; 3 having a plurality of rectangular wafers with long sides The spacing is a long cutting path'·the chopping knife: the road, and the adjacent crystal edge is equal to the width of the cutting channel, and the laser cutting is the same length cutting system to cut the blade 7 200947542 [Embodiment] =: The cutting method can be applied to various cutting processes. However, due to the use of a blade to cut wafers::::_ kerf, it is especially suitable for wafer dicing between wafers with special requirements for wide-cut miscut, such as contact J = and wafer (Contact Image Sensor , CIS) wafer; due to the library: 'Beibei single mouth mouth - + in the application of contact shadow silly: see: Whenever, a plurality of wafers are closely arranged to obtain continuity: wide image, Therefore, the edge of the short side of the rectangular wafer has a requirement = the distance between the long sides of the wafer is not particularly required, so a Η and the edge distance is not limited. The side of the long side of the cymbal is a rectangular connection. "Heart: 曰曰 片 (In actual case, the wafers of different shapes can also be cut, and the wafers 30 are cut between the adjacent wafers 30, and the (four) j-channel area The wide scribe line 311 and the long scribe line 312, wherein the knives are the spacing between the short sides 301 of the wafer 30, and the knives 311 are between the J and the long dies 312 # Λ兮 between the long sides 302 of the wafer 30 Spacing; when the wafer 3 is cut, the wafer 3 is cut into a plurality of wafers %, and when the method is used, the conventional cutting blade 12 is used to cut the wide cutting track; η, and Ray (4) (4) (4) Tao's method of cutting the long scribe line 312, and finally applying a pulling force to both sides of the long scribe line 312, the wafer 30 can be divided into a plurality of wafers 3 along the scribe line 31. α Please refer to the same Β , , , , , , , η η η η η η η η 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 2009 After the blade is cut, the short side of the wafer 3 Å will be lost: the wide scribe line 3111; and the long side of the wafer 3 3 3 The long cutting track 3 of the crucible 2 is cut by laser; after cutting, a plurality of the wafers 30 f are arranged, and the short length of the wafer 30 is only slightly left due to the loss of the partial wide cutting path 3111. Therefore, the plurality of wafers 30 can be closely arranged. Moreover, since the cutting quality of the long side 312 of the wafer 3 is maintained when the laser 22 is cut, the long side 312 of the wafer 3 has almost no loss of the cutting lane 311, so it is rarely caused. The wafer 30 is defective. Circular cut I: 2: Figure ' is a flow chart of the wafer cutter J = L of the contact image sensing unit of the present invention'.
