ABSTRACT:
A method of registrably aligning wafers prior to bonding uses an assembly jig having a plurality of upstanding aligning elements each of which is arranged to registrably align with one of a predetermined number of locating features of the wafers. The locating features of the wafers are arranged about a corresponding upstanding aligning element of the jig prior to bonding the wafers.
