Joyce,
The 'law of bean-counters' is the same all over too. I would like to see
them work around the problem and come up with a viable & reliable solution!
They also don't always understand the old adage - "garbage in-garbage out",
thinking that cheapest is always best.
I guess in some ways that applies to employment as well. Seems like many
firms nowadays opt for the cheap, inexperienced individuals and disregard
the experienced ones [excluding Steve Gregory].
I find that one usually gets what you pay for... Experience doesn't always
come from a book, or a forum [although it can certainly help!]. Some of the
greatest, most valuable learning experiences are those hardest learned. I'm
sure we can each relate to that.
It seems silly not to pass knowledge along [unless it is proprietary, etc].
Why waste energy/time/$ when we could bump ourselves up to the next level of
creativity/productivity/technology...

Good to know the law of physics didn't change across the boarder. Thx to
confirm the method. Bean counter didn't like it, take few micro second
longer per bond. Impact on throughput. Of course, the bean counter never
bond a single wire in his life.

Joyce,
Exactly!! You've learned the hard way too! Took me a while to figure it
out, but it is something I've never forgotten!
Very similar to bonding a MEMs device, attached with RTV. Wild!!!

Yap. Sit, wait, fire US with high power. Not something nice to have. Too

Joyce,
Even an acrylic PSA can get a little squishy at thermosonic temps.
Have you had to deal with stiffeners attached with silicone in the past?

Good Morning,
Does the size of a wire bond pad (in this case with a perfect etch .002
wide) have any effect on whether the wire bonder does Al wedge or
Thermosonic gold( I know the gold plating is different) - just asking
about
the process. Thanks. Steve Kelly
