What it is
The West Bond 7443 is a wire bonder used in semiconductor packaging.[1]
How it works
General reference — not yet source-verifiedWire bonders typically use ultrasonic energy, applied through a bonding tool (capillary or wedge), to weld a wire to the bond pad. The bond head descends, applies pressure and ultrasonic vibration, and forms a metallurgical bond. The wire is then routed to the next bond point, and the process is repeated.
Applications
General reference — not yet source-verifiedWire bonders are used in the packaging of integrated circuits, power devices, discrete semiconductors, MEMS, and other microelectronic components that require electrical interconnection from the die to the package leads.
