What it is

The Shinkawa UTC 2000 is a wire bonder used in semiconductor device packaging.[1]

How it works

General reference — not yet source-verified

Wire bonders connect the bond pads on a semiconductor die to the leads of a package using fine wire. The UTC 2000 is part of this equipment class, performing thermosonic or ultrasonic bonding. A capillary tool feeds the wire and forms a ball bond at the first bond point, then creates a stitch bond at the second bond point before moving to the next connection.

Where it fits in the process flow

General reference — not yet source-verified

Wire bonding is a back-end packaging step that follows wafer dicing and die attach. After the die is mounted to a substrate or leadframe, the wire bonder makes the electrical interconnections. The bonded assembly then proceeds to encapsulation, such as molding or potting, and final test.
