  • Abstract
    How present challenges are being met by the innovation taking place in wire-bonding technology is discussed. A wire-bonder system accuracy model is discussed. Factors that affect minimum pad-size requirement and fine pitch capability are described. The requirements for attaining true-bond program portability are analyzed. Results of designed experiments undertaken to better understand the wire-bonding process are also presented.<>
