I have lots of experience with thermosonic gold ball bonding. You can read the literature and you will probably find some papers that say you can do it. I have never been able to do it. We gold ball bond all day long with little problems at all bu

The paper Dave posted the link for is great. I have to go back and read it in depth. I can build prototypes by wirebonding to ENIG. I can do it on a manual wirebonder but I don't have the patience to do it on a magazine to magazine automatic machi

I don't have a plasma cleaner either. It will help a lot. Actually I don't clean at all. Our wirebond pads are far enough away so the flux residue does not get on the wirebond pads. That's what we think anyway. I am sure we have some degree of c

I was wondering if anyone could direct me towards documentation on shear test methods/apparatus to test the bond integrity of a solder ball to its substrate. Thanks.

Hiee everyone, I am a Hardware Engineer and also a PCB designer. I am using a Microntroller which is in "CHIP PACKAGE". So in order to connect our microcontroller with my PCB, i am using "Wire bonding Technology". So, Can any one suggust 1. whi

Finer pitch: Wedge bonding can be designed and manufactured to very small dimensions, down to 50 mm pitch. Processing speed: Machine rotational movements make the overall speed of the wedge bonding process less than thermosonic ball bonding. Alumin

I have made reference to X-ray Ball Bond Signatures a number of times, and I cannot overstate the importance of quickly qualifying the overall ball bond pattern as either uniform in size and shape or not. Software is available that will make this qua

hi all, i have a question about the wirebonding That is under what circumstances that the ball bonding is used and under what circumstaces the wedge bonding is used? thanx advanced.
