Abstract
A lot of wedge bonding failures were observed on the leadframe (LF) type A due to non-stick on lead (NSOL) during the second wire bonding process of TQFP package. The copper ion contamination from the plating process was identified as one of the key factors that attributed to the NSOL failures. Surface analyses were performed in terms of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy on the surface of LF type A. It was found that as received silver-plated surface of the copper LF type A was contaminated by the copper. After the copper contamination was solved in the plating process, the design of experiment was implemented for the verification of the influence of copper contamination on the quality of the second bonding process. It was confirmed that copper contamination dramatically reduced the strength of wedge bonding. The wedge pull test showed that NSOL failures were not observed after the copper ion contamination in the plating process was well controlled.
