This page was generated automatically from cited public sources and hasn't completed the full research pass yet. Every specification shown carries its source; more detail is added as research completes.

The SUSS FC 250 is a die bonder for high-accuracy automated packaging of optoelectronic devices. The SUSS FC 250 provides sub-micron alignment accuracy, with alignment deviation of 1 µm at 3σ. The SUSS FC 250 can operate at temperatures up to 450°C and bonding forces from 10 gf to 200 kgf.[1]

What it is

The SUSS MicroTec FC 250 is a die bonder used in packaging and bonding.[2][3]

How it works

The FC 250 uses optical alignment, a bonding arm, and heated chucks for flip-chip style attachment.[1]

Where it fits in the process flow

General reference — not yet source-verified

The FC 250 sits in back-end packaging and assembly rather than front-end wafer fabrication.

The FC 250 is suited to align, place, and bond chips to substrates for device assembly.
