BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0006] An integrated circuit fabricated on the silicon wafer is
often referred to as a `die`. For the purposes of this
specification, the term die will be used as a reference to an
integrated circuit fabricated on a wafer substrate using
lithographic the well known etching and deposition techniques
commonly used in semiconductor fabrication. Integrated circuit (IC)
dies are electrically connected to printed circuit boards by wire
bonds. The wire bonds are very thin wires--around 25 to 40 microns
in diameter--extending from contact pads along the side of the
wafer substrate to contacts on the printed circuit board (PCB).
Wire bonding is a widely used electrical interconnection technique
because of the speed and accuracy of modern wire bonding machines,
commonly referred to as wirebonders.
[0007] Wirebonders are automated devices that weld small lengths of
wire from conductors on the PCB to the contact pads on an
integrated circuit die. Wire is fed through a bonding tool that
uses some combination of pressure, heat and/or ultra-sonic energy
to attach the wire to the bond pads via a solid phase welding
process. The two most common types of wire bonder are referred to
as wedge bond and ball bond. These refer to the bonding tool and
the configuration of the wire bond itself. With both types of
wirebonders, the individual wire bonds extend in an arc from the
bond pad on the integrated circuit (IC) die to the conductor on the
PCB. This is because wires from the contact pads to the PCB are
made longer than necessary to accommodate changes in the gap
between the PCB and the bonds pads due to thermal expansion, flex
in the components and so on.
[0008] To protect and strengthen the wire bonds, they are sealed
within a bead of epoxy called encapsulant. The top of the wire arc
is often about 300 microns above the contact pads although some
wire bonding may extend even higher. As the name suggests, the
encapsulant needs to encapsulate the full length of the wire so the
encapsulant bead will extend 500 microns to 600 microns proud of
the contact pads.
[0009] If the die is purely an electronic microprocessor, there is
little need to keep close control of the encapsulant bead
dimensions. However, if the die is a micro-electro mechanical
systems (MEMS) device with an active upper surface, it may be
necessary or desirable to bring the active surface of the die onto
close proximity with another surface. One such situation applies to
inkjet printheads. The proximity of the print media to the nozzle
array influences the print quality. Similarly, if a cleaning
surface is wiped across the nozzles, the bead of encapsulant can
hamper the wiping contact.
[0010] Another problems arises because of sides of the encapsulant
bead are not straight. One commonly used technique for depositing
the encapsulant involves extruding it from a needle directly onto
the line of wire bonds. The encapsulant volume and placement on the
die is not very accurate. Variations in the pressure from the pump
or slight non-uniformities in the speed of the needle cause the
side of the bead contacting the active surface to be reasonably
crooked.
[0011] As the side of the bead is not straight, it has to be
generously spaced from any active parts on the active surface to
comfortably accommodate the perturbations. Spacing the electrical
contacts away from the active portions (say for example, inkjet
nozzles) of the active surface uses up valuable wafer real estate
and reduces the number of dies that can be fabricated from a wafer
disc.
[0012] In light of the widespread use of inkjet printheads, the
invention will be described with specific reference to its
application in this field. However, the ordinary worker will
appreciate that this is purely illustrative and the invention is
equally applicable to other integrated circuits wire bonded to a
PCB or other support structure.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
[0013] According to a first aspect, the present invention provides
a method of profiling a series of wire bonds between a line of
contact pads on a die, and a corresponding set of conductors on a
supporting structure, the method comprising the steps of:
[0014] electrically connecting each of the contact pads on the die
to a corresponding conductor on the supporting structure with a
respective wire bond, each of the wire bonds extending in an arc
from the contact pad to the conductor; and,
[0015] pushing on each of the wire bonds individually to collapse
the arc and plastically deform the wire bond such that the plastic
deformation maintains the wire bond in a flatter profile shape.
[0016] The strength of the wire bond is known to be relatively
small; of the order of 3 to 5 grams force. However, the Applicant's
work has found that the wire bond structure is robust enough to
withstand a certain degree of work hardening from plastic
deformation. The arc of the wire bond can be deformed into a
flatter profile without compromising the electrical connection with
the PCB. The Applicant's above referenced U.S. Ser. No. 11/860,539
(Our Docket MPN008US) discloses a technique for simultaneously
pushing some or all of the wire loops in the line of wire bonds.
This so called gang wire pushing technique is effective but further
development has shown that individually collapsing each wire bond
is more controlled and easier to implement in a high volume
manufacturing process.
[0017] Preferably, adjacent wire bonds in the line of wire bonds
are sequentially pushed. In a further preferred form, the step of
forming the line of wire bonds uses a wirebonder that has a bonding
tool for moving between the contacts pads and their respective
corresponding conductors, and the line of wires bonds are
sequentially pushed by a wire engaging structure on the wirebonder.
Preferably, the wire engaging structure and the bonding tools are
configured for synchronized movement. Preferably, the wire engaging
structure pushes the wire bond immediately adjacent the wire bond
currently being formed by the bonding tool. Preferably, the
wirebonder is a wedge type wirebonder and the bonding tool is a
wedge with a wire clamp at a distal end such that during use, the
wire clamp holds a piece of wire in contact with one of the contact
pads on the die to form a weld connection before moving to the
corresponding conductor on the PCB to weld the other end of the
wire and formal wire bond, and the wire engaging structure has a
wire pushing surface that contacts the wire bond, the wire pushing
surface is adjacent to, and 1.0 mm to 1.6 mm behind the wire clamp
with respect to the movement of the wedge towards the IC die. In a
particularly preferred form, the wire pushing surface is between 50
microns to 400 microns closer to the PCB and the wire clamp. In
some embodiments, the line of wire bonds does not extend more than
150 microns above the contact pads of the IC die. In preferred
embodiments, the line of wire bonds does not extend more than 50
microns above the contact pads of the IC die. In a particularly
preferred form, the wire bonds are attached to the contact pads
with a bond strength greater than 3 g force.
[0018] Preferably the contact pads are spaced from the
corresponding conductors on the PCB by more than 1 mm. In a further
preferred form, the contact pads are between 2 mm and 3 mm from the
corresponding conductors on the PCB. In some embodiments, the PCB
has a support structure and the flex PCB and need to the support
structure such that the conductors are adjacent the contact pads on
the die. In particular embodiments, the support structure has a
chip mounting area for supporting the die, the die having a back
surface in contact with the chip mounting area and an active
surface opposing the back surface, the active surface having the
contact pads, and the chip mounting area being raised relative to
the remainder of the support structure such that the contact pads
are raised relative to the conductors. In a particularly preferred
form, the support structure is a liquid crystal polymer (LCP)
molding. Preferably, the active surface has functional elements
spaced less than 260 microns from the contacts pads of the die. In
a particularly preferred form, the die is an inkjet printhead IC
and the functional elements are nozzles through which ink is
ejected. In some embodiments, the support structure is a liquid
crystal polymer (LCP) molding.
[0019] Preferably, the wire bonds are covered in a bead of
encapsulant, the bead of encapsulant extending less than 200
microns above the active surface of the die.
[0020] Preferably, the wire bonds are covered in a bead of
encapsulant, the bead of encapsulant having a profiled surface that
is flat, parallel to and spaced less than 100 microns from the
active surface.
[0021] Preferably, the line of wire bonds are covered in a bead of
encapsulant, the bead of encapsulant having a profiled surface that
is flat and inclined relative to the active surface.
[0022] Preferably, the wire bonds are covered in a bead of
encapsulant, the encapsulant being an epoxy material that is
thixotropic when uncured.
[0023] Preferably, the wire bonds are covered in a bead of
encapsulant, the encapsulant being an epoxy material has a
viscosity greater than 700 cp when uncured.
[0024] In a particular embodiment, the printhead IC is mounted in a
printer such that during use the nozzles are less than 100 microns
from the paper path.
[0025] According to a second aspect, the present invention provides
a wirebonder for electrically connecting an integrated circuit die
with conductors on a printed circuit board, the wirebonder
comprising:
[0026] a bonding tool for attaching wire bonds from the integrated
circuit die to the conductors of the printed circuit board;
and,
[0027] a wire engaging structure for deforming the wire bonds.
[0028] Preferably, the wire engaging structure pushes on the wire
bonds to plastically deform them.
[0029] Preferably, the wire engaging structure is configured to
push the wire bonds onto an adhesive surface positioned between the
integrated circuit and the conductors of the printed circuit
board.
[0030] Preferably, the wire engaging structure is flexible relative
to the bonding tool.
[0031] Preferably, the wire engaging structure is configured for
synchronized movement with the bonding tool.
[0032] Preferably, the bonding tool moves from the integrated
circuit to the conductors when forming one of the wire bonds and
the wire engaging structure has a wire pushing surface positioned
1.0 mm to 1.6 mm behind the bonding tool with respect to its
direction of movement when forming the wire bonds.
[0033] Preferably, the integrated circuit die is mounted to a
supporting surface and the wire pushing surface is 50 microns to
400 microns closer to the supporting surface than the bonding tool.
Preferably, the wirebonder is a wedge type wirebonder and the
bonding tool is a wedge with a wire clamp at a distal end such that
during use, the wire clamp holds a piece of wire in contact with
one of the contact pads on the die to form a weld connection before
moving to the corresponding conductor on the PCB to weld the other
end of the wire and formal wire bond. Preferably, the wire pushing
surface is formed from a material that has a hardness less than
that of the wire bonds.
[0034] Preferably, the wire bonds are formed from lengths of wire
with a gauge between 15 microns and 75 microns. In a particularly
preferred form, the gauge is about 25 microns.
[0035] In some embodiments, the wire bonds attach to respective
contact pads on the IC die and the wire bonds do not extend more
than 150 microns above the contact pads of the IC die. In preferred
embodiments, the line of wire bonds does not extend more than 50
microns above the contact pads of the IC die.
[0036] Preferably the contact pads are spaced from the
corresponding conductors on the PCB by more than 1 mm. In a further
preferred form, the contact pads are between 2 mm and 3 mm from the
corresponding conductors on the PCB. In some embodiments, the PCB
has a support structure and the flex PCB and need to the support
structure such that the conductors are adjacent the contact pads on
the die. In particular embodiments, the support structure has a
chip mounting area for supporting the die, the die having a back
surface in contact with the chip mounting area and an active
surface opposing the back surface, the active surface having the
contact pads, and the chip mounting area being raised relative to
the remainder of the support structure such that the contact pads
are raised relative to the conductors. In a particularly preferred
form, the support structure is a liquid crystal polymer (LCP)
molding. Preferably, the active surface has functional elements
spaced less than 260 microns from the contacts pads of the die. In
a particularly preferred form, the die is an inkjet printhead IC
and the functional elements are nozzles through which ink is
ejected. In some embodiments, the support structure is a liquid
crystal polymer (LCP) molding.
[0037] According to a third aspect, the present invention provides
an electronic device comprising:
[0038] an integrated circuit die with a plurality of contacts
pads;
[0039] a printed circuit board with a plurality of conductors
corresponding to each of the contact pads respectively;
[0040] wire bonds electrically connecting each of the contact pads
to the corresponding conductors; and,
[0041] an adhesive surface positioned between the contacts pads and
the corresponding conductors; wherein,
[0042] the wire bonds are secured to the adhesive surface.
[0043] According to a fourth aspect, the present invention provides
a method of reducing wire bond loop heights in wire bonds
electrically connecting an integrated circuit die with a contact
pad to a printed circuit board with a conductor, the method
comprising the steps of:
[0044] mounting the integrated circuit die such that the contact
pad is spaced from the conductor; positioning an adhesive surface
between the contact pad and the conductor on the printed circuit
board;
[0045] attaching wire to one of the contact pad or the
conductor;
[0046] drawing the wire towards the other of the contact pad or the
conductor;
[0047] allowing the wire to contact the adhesive surface; and,
[0048] attaching the wire to the other of the contact pad of the
conductor to form a wire bond adhered to the adhesive surface and a
point intermediate its ends.
[0049] These aspects of the invention are placed on the realisation
that wire bonds can be adhered to an underlying supporting
structure without detrimental effects to their bond strength or
function. Adhering the wire bonds between their ends provides a
reliable and control production in the wire bond loop height. The
resulting wire bond heights can be smaller than that achieved by
inducing plastic deformation as the individual wire is unable to
spring back up when the wire engaging structure disengages. It will
be appreciated that plastically deforming a wire bond also involves
initially elastically deforming the wire. The elastic deformation
is removed when the wire pushing structure is retracted.
[0050] The wire bond can be adhered while the bonds are being
formed by the wirebonder without any modification to the bonding
tool. The applicant has found that wire bond is will typically
allow the wire to touch the surface between the die and the
conductors on the printed circuit board as the bond is being
formed. Once the wire has been welded to the contact pad on the
die, the bonding tool draws is towards the conductors on the
printed circuit board. As it is drawn across the gap between the
die and printed circuit board, the wire drapes downwardly and rests
on the underlying surface. The only once the bonding tool has
welded the other end of the wire to the conductor, and the wire
clamp immediately behind the bonding tool breaks off the feed wire
by pulling until tensile failure, does residual tension in the loop
cause it to bow upwards. If the wire is brought down to touch an
adhesive surface before the ultrasonic weld on the printed circuit
board, it is not able to bow upwards.
[0051] Preferably, the wire bond is moved into contact with the
adhesive surface by a wirebonder is the wire bond is being
formed.
[0052] Preferably, the adhesive surface is one side of a
double-sided adhesive tape. Preferably, the integrated circuit die
and the PCB are mounted to a supporting structure such that they
are adjacent and spaced from each other. Preferably, the PCB is a
flexible PCB and the supporting structure is a liquid crystal
polymer (LCP) molding. Preferably, the integrated circuit die is
mounted to the supporting structure by a die attach film, and the
adhesive surface is provided by a portion of the die attach
film.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
[0064] FIG. 1 shows a common technique used for applying a bead
encapsulant to wire bonds. A die 4 is mounted to a supporting
structure 6 adjacent the edge of a flex PCB 8 (flexible printed
circuit board). The die 4 has a line of contact pads 10 along one
edge and the flex PCB 8 has corresponding bond pads 12. Wire bonds
16 extend from the bond pads 10 to the bonds pads 12. Power and
data is transmitted to the die 4 via conductive traces 14 in the
flex PCB 8. This is a simplified representation of the dies mounted
within many electronic devices. The printhead IC dies mounted to
the LCP (liquid crystal polymer) molding to receive print data from
an adjacent flex PCB, as described in U.S. Ser. No. 11/014,769 (Our
Docket RRC001US) incorporated herein by cross reference, is one
example of this type of die mounting arrangement. The ordinary
worker will appreciate that the die may also be mounted directly to
a hard PCB with traces formed thereon.
[0065] The wire bonds 16 are covered in a bead on encapsulant 2 to
protect and reinforce the bonds. The encapsulant 2 is dispensed
from a discharge needle 18 directly onto the wire bonds 16. Often
the encapsulant bead 2 is three separate beads--two beads of
so-called `dam` encapsulant 20, and one bead of `fill` encapsulant
22. The dam encapsulant 20 has a higher viscosity than the fill
encapsulant 22, and serves to form a channel to hold the fill
encapsulant bead. The height H of the bead 2 above the die 4 is
usually about 500-600 microns. In most electronic devices, this
does not pose a problem. However, if the die has an active surface
that needs to operate in close proximity to another surface, this
bead can be an obstruction.
Elevating the Die Relative to the Flex PCB
[0066] FIG. 2 shows a stepped support structure 6 that has raised
the chip mounting area 26 relative to the PCB mounting area 24 (or
at least the area mounting the PCB bonds pads 12). With the die 4
on a raised chip mounting area 26, the arc of the wire bonds 16 are
lower relative to active surface 28 of the die 4. In fact, the end
of the wire bond 16 attached to the contact pad 10 can be the apex
of the arc (bearing in mind that the wire bond arc is intended to
accommodate some relative movement of the die and PCB). When the
wire bonds 16 are covered with encapsulant 2, the bead has a
reduced height H above the active surface 28 of the die 4. If the
bead of encapsulant 2 uses two beads of dam encapsulant 24 and a
fill encapsulant 22, the positions, volumes and viscosities of the
beads need to take the step into account. Bead heights less than
100 microns are easily achievable, and with additional measures,
such as wire arc collapsing and bead profiling (discussed below),
bead height of less than 50 microns are possible.
[0067] With the die 4 raised above the flex PCB 8 by 410 microns,
the height of the wire bonds 16 above the die is about 34 microns.
With the die raised 610 microns above the flex PCB, the wire bond
height is around 20 microns. Raising the die even further has shown
little or no further reduction in wire bond height with a step of
710 microns having a wire bond height of around 20 microns.
Shaping the Encapsulant Bead with a Profiling Blade
[0068] FIGS. 3A to 3C show the encapsulant 2 being profiled with a
profiling blade 30. The support structure 6 is again stepped to
reduce the height of the wire bonds 16 above the die 4. Before the
epoxy encapsulant 2 has cured, the profiling blade 30 moves across
the die 4 and wire bonds in a predetermined path. As shown in FIG.
3B, the blade 30 displaces the top of the bead 30 to its flex PCB
side to form a flat top surface 32 that is at a significantly
reduced height H above the die 4.
[0069] The encapsulant bead 2 may be a plurality of separate beads
as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, or a single bead of one material.
However, for close dimensional control of the profiled encapsulant,
the encapsulant materials used should be thixotropic--that is, once
deposited from the discharge needle, or profiled by the blade 30,
the material should not flow under its own weight, but rather hold
its form until it cures. This requires the epoxy to have an uncured
viscosity greater than about 700 cp. A suitable encapsulant is
DYMAX 9001-E-v3.1 Chip Encapsulant produced by Dymax Corporation
with a viscosity of approximately 800 cp when uncured. The blade 30
may be ceramic (glass) or metal and preferably about 200 microns
thick.
[0070] It will be appreciated that the relative movement of the
blade 30 and the die 4 can be precisely controlled. This allows the
height H to be determined by the tolerance of the wire bonding
process. As long as H is greater than the nominal height of the
wire bond arc above the die, plus the maximum tolerance, the
encapsulant 2 will cover and protect the wire bonds 16. With this
technique, the height H can be easily reduced from 500-600 microns
to less than 300 microns. If the heights of the wire bond arcs are
also reduced, the height H of the encapsulant bead can be less than
100 microns. The Applicant uses this technique to profile
encapsulant on printhead dies down to a height of 50 microns at its
lowest point. As shown in FIG. 3C, the lowest point is at the
encapsulant front and the blade 30 forms an inclined face 32 in the
top of the bead 2. The inclined face is utilized by the printhead
maintenance system when cleaning the paper dust and dried ink from
the nozzle face. This illustrates the technique's ability to not
just reduce the height of the encapsulant bead, but to form a
surface that can perform functions other than just encapsulate the
wire bonds. The edge profile of the blade and the path of the blade
relative to the die can be configured to form a surface that has a
multitude of shapes for a variety of purposes.
Plastic Deformation of the Wire Bond Arcs
[0071] FIGS. 4A to 4C show another technique for lowering the
profile of wire bonds. FIG. 4A shows the die 4 connected to the
flex PCB 8 via the wire bonds 16. While the stepped support
structure 6 has lowered the height of the wire bond arcs compared
to a flat supporting structure, the wire bonds still have a natural
tendency to bow upwards rather than downwards towards the corner of
the step. The wires 16 are typically about 32 microns in diameter
and have a pull force of about 3 to 5 grams force. The pull force
is the tensile load necessary to break the connection to the
contact pad 10 or the bond pad 12. Given the fragility of these
structures (one of the reasons encapsulant is applied),
conventional wisdom is to avoid any contact between the wire bond
arcs and other solid surfaces.
[0072] As shown in FIG. 4B, the arc of the wire bonds 16 can be
collapsed by a wire pusher 34. The wire pusher 34 displaces the
wire bond 16 enough to elastically and plastically deform the arc.
The Applicants have shown that contact with the wire pusher 34 can
cause localized work hardening in the wire, but as long as the
pushing force is not excessive, it does not break. The end of the
wire pusher 34 is rounded to avoid stress concentration points. The
wire pusher may be a stylus for engaging single wire bonds or a
blade that pushes on multiple wire bonds simultaneously.
[0073] Referring now to FIG. 4C, the wire pusher 34 is retracted
and the wire springs back toward its original shape to relieve the
elastic deformation. However, the plastic deformation remains and
the wire bond height above the die 4 is much reduced. Testing has
shown that an initial wire bond loop height of 200 microns can be
reduced to about 35 microns using this technique. Tests have also
shown that the pull strength of the plastically deformed wires
remains at about 3 to 5 grams force.
[0074] The collapse of the wire bonds is uncontrolled and leaves
the wire bonds somewhat randomly deformed. However, pushing the
wire bonds closer to the die provides more uniformly shaped
collapsed wire bonds. The Applicant's work has shown that engaging
the wires about 200 to 300 microns for the die provides the best
results.
[0075] As shown in FIG. 4D, the die 4 and the flex PCB 8 are
mounted to a flat support structure 6. As discussed above, this
means the original loop height of the wire bond arc is much
higher--approximately 400 microns above the die 4. Consequently,
the wire has more plastic deformation when the loop is collapsed by
the wire pusher. Even so, the Applicants results show that the
residual loop height after pushing is about 20-50 microns.
[0076] FIGS. 5A and 5B show the collapsed wire bonds 16 covered
with an encapsulant bead 2. Even without bead profiling prior to
curing, the height H of the bead above the die is much less than
the bead necessary to encapsulate the original undeformed wire
loops.
Applying Encapsulant with Profiling Blade
[0077] FIGS. 6A, 6B and 6C show the application of the encapsulant
bead using the profiling blade 30 instead of a discharge needle
(see FIGS. 1 and 2). As previously discussed, the flowrate of
encapsulant from the discharge needle can vary and this gives rise
to large variations on the position of the encapsulant front on the
active surface of the die 4. Consequently, any functional elements
in the active surface of the die need to be sufficiently spaced
from the contacts pads 10 to allow for the meandering encapsulant
front.
[0078] Applying the encapsulant with the profiling blade avoids the
problems caused by the flowrate fluctuations from the discharge
needle. As shown in FIG. 6A, the bead of encapsulant 40 can be
formed on the profiling blade 30 by simply dipping it into a
reservoir of uncured encapsulant epoxy. Of course, the bead 40 may
also be formed by any other convenient method, such as running the
discharge needle along one end of the blade 30.
[0079] FIG. 6B show the blade 30 having been lowered to touch the
bead 40 onto the die 4. When the encapsulant material touches the
die surface, it wets and wicks along the surface while remaining
pinned to the edge of the blade. The blade 30 is held at a
predetermined height above the die 4 and moved over the bead 2 to
flatten and lower its profile. The encapsulant displaced from the
top of the bead 2 by the blade 30, spreads over the PCB side of the
bead 2. It is not relevant if the encapsulant spreads further over
the PCB than necessary. As long as the wire bonds 16 and the bonds
pads 12 are covered, any additional encapsulant on the PCB 8
surface is not detrimental.
[0080] In FIG. 6C, the wire bond 16 height has been reduced by
collapsing the arc in accordance with the techniques discussed
above. As previously discussed, the bead 2 deposited by the
discharge needle need not be as big to cover the wire bond 16 once
it has been collapsed. Furthermore, the blade 30 can be brought
closer to the die 4 without contacting wire bonds 16 when profiling
the encapsulant 2. Hence the bead profile in FIG. 6C is
substantially lower than that of FIG. 6B.
Encapsulant Front Control
[0081] When the encapsulant material is dispensed from the
discharge needle, minor variations in the flowrate can cause the
bead to bulge at points of higher flow. Consequently, the side of
the bead that contacts the active surface of the die is not
straight, but has significant perturbations. These perturbations
have to be accommodated between the contact pads and any functional
elements on the active surface. The spacing between the contacts
pads and the functional elements consumes valuable `chip real
estate`. The Applicant has previously developed printhead dies with
a spacing of 260 microns between the contact pads and the first row
of nozzles. Better control of the encapsulant front reduces the
space between the contacts and operational elements, and so the
overall dimensions of the die. Hence the design can be more compact
and more chips fabricated from the original wafer disc.
[0082] As shown in FIGS. 7A and 7B, the profiling blade 30 is used
to control the front 36 of the bead of encapsulant 2. The blade 30
is positioned over the die 4 to define a gap 42 between its lower
edge and the active surface 28. As the discharge needle 18
dispenses the encapsulant material 44, it flows onto the active
surface, one side of the blade and a fillet of the material extends
through the gap 42. Because of the flow restriction created by the
gap, flow variations have a reduced effect on the dimensions of the
fillet that flows through the gap. Therefore the encapsulant front
36 closely corresponds to the line of the lower edge of the blade
30.
[0083] As shown in FIG. 7B, the profiling blade 30 is already in
position to profile the encapsulant bead 2 once it has been
dispensed from the discharge needle. The blade 30 simply moves over
the die 4 in a direction away from the nozzles 38. This keeps the
encapsulant front 36 in place and flattens the profile of the
encapsulant bead 2 over the wire bonds 16.
Collapsing the Wire Bonds Arcs with the Wirebonder
[0084] FIGS. 8 and 9 show a technique for individually deforming
each of the wire bond arcs using the wirebonder. This has several
advantages over the technique shown in FIGS. 4A to 4C described in
the "PLASTIC DEFORMATION OF THE WIRE BOND ARCS" section above.
Firstly, deforming the wire bonds as they are being attached by the
wirebonder is more time efficient than pushing the line of wire
bonds as a separate production step. Secondly, it has been found
that individually engaging and deforming each wire in the line of
wire bonds provides uniform results in terms of wire deformation
and bond strength.
[0085] FIG. 8 is a schematic perspective of a wirebonder 46 forming
the individual wire bonds 16 between the contact pads 10 and the
conductors 12 on the flex PCB 8. The printhead IC 4 is shown
adhered to one side of the die attach film 58. In turn, the die
attach film 58 is attached to the LCP molding 6. Laser ablated
holes through the die attach film 58 feed ink to the array of
nozzles 38. The LCP molding six has a stepped surface 60 so that
the printhead IC 4 is raised relative to the flex PCB eight. As
discussed above this helps to reduce the height of the wire bonds
16.
[0086] The wire bonder 46 is commonly known in the industry as a
"wedge type" wire bonder. The wedge 48 receives a stock of feed
wire 56 at its tip. Using some combination of pressure, heat and
ultrasonic energy, the end of the wire bond 16 is welded to one of
the conductors 12 on the flex PCB 8, or one of the contact pads 10
on the printhead integrated circuit 4. FIG. 8 includes an enlarged
inset showing the connection between the wire bond 16 and the
conductor 12. The end of the wire has a flatten section 54 created
by the tip of wedge 48. Adjacent to flatten section 54 is a neck
portion 52 where the wire 16 transitions to its circular cross
section. This neck section of the wire is work hardened and
particularly prone to plastic deformation. In light of the greater
propensity for plastic deformation at the neck portion 52, the wire
bonder 46 is fitted with a wire engaging structure 50 pushes on the
wire bond 16 in this region. However, the wire engaging structure
50 to not contact the wire bonds 16 too close to the neck portion
52 is this can break the wire. The skilled worker will appreciate
the work hardening increases the brittleness of the metal. The
applicant's testing has found that positioning the wire engaging
structure 50 so that its tip is between 1.0 mm and 1.6 mm behind
the tip of the wedge (with respect to its movement from the die to
the flex) and 50 microns to 600 microns below the tip of the wedge
produces suitable results. In particular, the best results were
achieved with the tip of the wire engaging structure 50 positioned
1.2 mm to 1.5 mm behind the tip the wedge, and 100 microns to 300
microns below the tip of the wedge. This configuration gave wire
bonds 16 less than 50 microns above the nozzle array 38, each with
a bond strength between 3.5 g and 5 g.
[0087] The wire engaging structure 50 is formed from a material
with the surface hardness less than that of the wire. This avoids
surface indentations on the wire which may later become stress
concentration sites.
Adhering the Wire Bond to Reduce Loop Heights
[0088] FIG. 10 is a schematic section view of another technique
used to reduce the height of the wire bond loops. An adhesive
surface 62 is positioned on the LCP molding 6, between the contact
pads 10 of the printhead IC 4 and the corresponding conductor 12 on
the flex PCB 8. The Applicant has found that a wirebonder will
usually allow the wire bond 16 to drape downwards and touch the
surface between the die and PCB while the wire is bonded to the PCB
conductor. Once the wire has been welded to the contact pad on the
die, the bonding tool draws it towards the conductors on the
printed circuit board. As it is drawn across the gap between the
die and printed circuit board, the wire drapes downwardly and rests
on the underlying surface. Once the bonding tool has welded the
other end of the wire to the conductor, and the wire clamp
immediately behind the bonding tool breaks off the feed wire by
pulling until tensile failure, the residual tension in the loop
cause it to bow upwards. By positioning adhesive 62 at the point of
contact between the wire and the LCP 6, the wire bond 16 is unable
to bow upwards to the same height.
[0089] The adhesive surface 62 may be double sided tape, an
adhesive paste or resin jetted onto the LCP 6 when the die 4 and
the flex 8 are fixed, or it could simply be an extension of the die
attach film 58.
[0090] The invention has been described herein by way of example
only. The ordinary will readily recognize many variations and
modifications which do not depart from the spirit and scope of the
broad inventive concept.
