（半導体装置）である。 There are various wire bonding methods for semiconductor devices. For example, the ultrasonic wire bonding method uses ultrasonic energy to vibrate the bonding wire against the bonded object while exposing the fresh surfaces of each other, resulting in plastic deformation. It performs solid phase bonding. As shown in FIG. 1, a wire bonder that performs this type of wire bonding has a wedge 1, which is a bonding terminal, attached to the tip of a horn 3 connected to an ultrasonic vibrator, and is driven by a drive motor 11. A configuration is proposed in which the horn 3 is swung up and down by a cam 9 that rotates with the cam 9, thereby moving the wedge 1 downward into contact with the wire bonding surface or away from the wire bonding surface upward. 8 moves wedge 1 forward, backward, left and right.
XY table, 2 is an aluminum wire that is a bonding wire guided to the tip of wedge 1, 20
is a bonded object (semiconductor device) supported on a support stand 30.

イヤボンデイング面の破損を防ぐためである。 Therefore, the wire bonding method using this type of device is designed so that the shape of the cam 9 or the rotational speed of the cam is controlled so that the wedge 1 has a vertical movement profile as shown by the solid line in FIG. Then, the wedge 1 is brought into contact with the wire bonding surface by first moving it rapidly and then slowly downward from the top dead center position, and when a predetermined time has elapsed, the ultrasonic transducer is activated to generate the ultrasonic wave. The program is such that sonic wire bonding is performed, and after completion of the process, the wedge 1 is rapidly returned to its upward motion while reducing residual vibration. Note that this bonding is performed alternately on the pellet side and the lead side. Further, the reason why the wedge is moved slowly downward is to prevent deterioration of wire bonding properties and damage to the wedge and wire bonding surface caused by the wedge contacting the wire bonding surface with impact.
この様にウエツジの下降動作を高速化される技
術については、特開昭55−141736号公報に示され
ている。 A technique for speeding up the downward movement of the wedge in this manner is disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 141736/1983.

For example, as shown in an example of a ceramic package shown in FIG. There are large variations in the accuracy of the parts 25, and furthermore, there are large variations in the depth of embedding the leads 25 into the low melting point glass 24.
There are variations in the top surface height Ha and the top surface height Hb of the leads 25 (both are based on the bottom surface of the ceramic package body 23).

作用時間が長くなる原因の一つとなつている。 For this reason, if the wire bonding surface varies higher than the reference height and ΔHa, ΔHb, the wedge will be formed at a point t somewhat earlier than the reference contact time t 0 , as shown by the imaginary line in Figure 2. It will come into contact with the wire bonding surface at y . Therefore, the wedge remains in contact with the wire bonding surface until the ultrasonic waves are generated, and after the bonding due to the ultrasonic vibrations is completed, it is returned to the upward movement as in the conventional method. As a result, the waiting time t x from when the wedge comes into contact with the wire bonding surface to when ultrasonic wire bonding is started becomes longer than necessary, which is one of the reasons why the wire bonding operation time becomes longer. There is.

It is characterized by this. The device of the present invention also includes a detector for detecting that the bonding terminal has contacted the wire bonding surface, and a control circuit that can start the wire bonding action after a predetermined time based on a signal from the detector. This is a characteristic feature.

３０はこれを支持する支持台である。 FIG. 4 is an overall configuration diagram of the ultrasonic wire bonder of this embodiment. In the figure, 1 is a wedge which is a bonding terminal, and an aluminum wire 2 which is a bonding wire is guided to the tip of the wedge 1. Reference numeral 3 designates a horn to which an ultrasonic vibrator 4 is connected, which is pivotally supported on a base 6 together with an integrally formed horn support 5, and is designed to be able to swing up and down about its pivot point 7. . 8 horizontally moves the wedge back and forth and left and right via this base 6
This is an XY table, and a control mechanism (not shown) sequentially positions the wedges 1 to face the wire bonding surfaces on the pellets and leads. 9
is a cam that is in sliding contact with one end of the horn support 5, and is connected to the drive motor 11 via the belt means 10.
According to the change in rotational speed, the horn support 5 and the horn 3 are swung up and down, and the wedge 1 is moved up and down. The cam 9 has a linear cam diagram, and the drive motor 11 is capable of speed adjustment and forward and reverse rotation. Further, 20 is a semiconductor device which is a body to be bonded;
30 is a support stand that supports this.

Upon contact, the lever 13 separates from the grounded cam 9 and the voltage on the lever 13 increases, thereby detecting that the wedge 1 has contacted the wire bonding surface.

うな特性に設定しているのである。 Further, reference numeral 14 causes the ultrasonic vibrator 4 to oscillate based on the contact detection signal from the detector 12, and conversely causes the drive motor 1 to oscillate based on the end of oscillation of the ultrasonic vibrator 4.
This is a control circuit that reverses the rotation speed. That is, this control circuit 14 includes a timer 15 that sends a starting signal to the ultrasonic transducer 4 after a preset time when receiving a signal from the detector 12, and
Immediately after the ultrasonic transducer oscillates for a predetermined period of time due to the action of a built-in counter, the ultrasonic transducer 4 receives a signal sent back from the ultrasonic transducer 4 and outputs a signal to the motor circuit 17 after a very short period of time. The motor circuit 17 has a function of rotating the drive motor 11 in reverse when the signal from the timer 16 is input so that the wedge 1 is returned to approximately the top dead center position. still,
The drive motor 11 and the cam 9 are provided with an encoder for detecting the rotation angle and a tachometer generator (both not shown) for detecting the rotation speed, and by the cooperation of these and the motor circuit 17, the wedge 1
For example, the vertical motion profile is set to have the characteristics as explained in FIG. 2.
次に上記構成のワイヤボンダの作用と共に本発
明方法を説明する。 Next, the method of the present invention will be explained together with the operation of the wire bonder having the above structure.

用に悪い影響を与えないために設けられる。 As shown in FIG. 5, when the wedge 1 moves downward rapidly and then slowly due to the action of the motor circuit 17, the height of the wire bonding surface at that time is relative to the reference surface L1 . If the heights vary by H 1 , H 2 or H 3 , then the points t 1 , t 2 , and
At t 3 the wedge contacts the wire bonding surface. Therefore, at this time, a detection signal is output from the detector 12 to the timer 15, and the timer 15 immediately starts the ultrasonic vibrator 4 to oscillate after a predetermined time t a has elapsed from that time, and starts ultrasonic bonding. In other words, as is clear from FIG. 5, the earlier the wedges come into contact, the earlier the ultrasonic bonding begins. As a result, the conventional waiting time t x shown in FIG. 2 can be eliminated, and bonding can be accelerated by that much. The time t a set in the timer 15 is the time required to dampen the vibration that occurs when the wedge comes into contact with the wire bonding surface, and is set in order not to have a negative effect on the bonding action immediately after. It will be done.
そして、ワイヤボンデイング作用が終了すると
同時に振動子４からタイマ１６に信号が出力さ

タ回路１７との協働により再び前述のボンデイン
グ工程を繰返すことになる。 Then, at the same time as the wire bonding action ends, a signal is output from the vibrator 4 to the timer 16, and after an extremely short time t b necessary for the residual vibration of the wedge to disappear, the timer 16 outputs a signal to the motor circuit 17.
The motor 11 is rotated in reverse at high speed, and the wedge is returned to its upward motion via the cam 9. Once the wedge is restored, the aforementioned bonding process is repeated again by the cooperation of the encoder and motor circuit 17.
従つて、ワイヤボンデイング面が高い方にずれ
ていれば、基準面におけるボンデイングの工程時
間よりも、第５図に示すように夫々時間tc1，tc2，
tc3だけ短縮することができる。 Therefore, if the wire bonding plane is shifted higher, the bonding process time at the reference plane is longer than the bonding process time as shown in FIG . 5, respectively .
It can be shortened by t c3 .

様である。 Here, if the collision vibration when the wedge contacts the wire bonding surface does not affect the bonding action, the predetermined time in the timer 15 can be made extremely short, and in some cases, the set time can be set to 0. It is. This also applies to the timer 16 at the end of the bonding action.

ことができる。 Further, although the above embodiments have exemplified ultrasonic bonding, if the ultrasonic vibration action is replaced with a pressure bonding action, the present invention can be applied to other types of bonding such as nail head bonding and wedge bonding.

めることができるという効果もある。 As described above, according to the wire bonding method of the present invention, when it is detected that the bonding terminal has contacted the wire bonding surface, the bonding action is immediately performed after a predetermined period of time has elapsed, and the wire bonder of the present invention performs this action. Even if there are dimensional variations in the semiconductor device, bonding is completed within a certain period of time after the bonding terminal contacts the wire bonding surface, eliminating the conventional waiting time. By eliminating this problem, the bonding speed can be increased accordingly. Furthermore, since the time from the contact of the bonding terminal to the start of the bonding action is constant regardless of dimensional variations, stable bonding can be achieved and the reliability of bonding can be improved.
