Hi all, Recently, we are trying to do wire bonding between a 75 * 75 um pad on a chip and substrate with 150 um height difference, but when completing wire bonding and the wire bonds on pad and substrate, the pad will get out of the chip easily

As I understand, you are wire bond gold wire to gold pad, where the substrate has good bond strength, but the die does not. If bond quality is good, and then drops off rapidly, then it's probably something to do with contamination within the system

We are currently wirebonding MCMs with surface components located in very close proximity to wirebond pads, which are gold plated. We are ball bonding with 99.99% Au wire. Normally we do not have problems, however if product has been reflowed seve

When I said "In this area, there is no difference between your experience in ceramic substrates and PTFE substrates." I was referring to the area we were discussing ... gold plating. I am sorry if you thought I ment than the wire bonding process wa

There maybe multiple drivers to your problems. * First, decreasing bond quality with time indicates a plating issue. What's the actual thickness of your gold and nickel on the pads? * Second, the no-sticks indicate contamination. If it's organic, p

For soldered areas, we like to keep gold thickness substantially below the maximum you propose. Search the fine SMTnet Archives for our discussions on the topic of acceptable levels of gold with solder connections. Let�s fix this �no one seems be s

Cheers to you Your gold plating is specified for the gold wire bonding between the die of your BGA and the pads on the BGA substrate. For solderable surfaces this is heavy on gold for use on pads. Gold SB thinner on pads to limit the amount of gol

We're not familiar with the AUG5 from Taiyo. [It doesn't show on their US site.] Is it liquid photoimageable? Printed solder masks are more likely to bleed. But you wouldn't have any solderability with bleed. Your plating seems acceptable [if th

What is the recommended finish for wire bonding ? Type of AU, thickness, etc. thanx...

What is wire bonding? What are the applications?
