In FIGS. 2a and 2, a semiconductor element 8 is mounted on a die pad 9 of the frame, and a thin metal wire 6 is used to connect the semiconductor element 8 and a lead 10 as shown in the figure. Next, in FIGS. 2c and 2d, when the capillary chip 5 rises to a certain height, the clamper 11 pinches the thin metal wire 6, and as a result, the thin metal wire 6 is cut from the point where it is bonded to the lead 10. Further, an electric torch 2 moves below the cut thin metal wire 6 and sparks the thin metal wire 6 with high voltage to generate a ball 7. At this time, whether or not a spark has occurred is checked by the current flowing when a spark occurs using the current detector 4 shown in Fig. 1, and if no current flows, it is assumed that the ball 7 has not come out and the device is stopped. There is. In this way, the current detector of conventional wire bonders is designed to allow current to flow, so if there is a short circuit between the electric torch and the thin metal wire, it is necessary to apply a high voltage to the electric torch. However, since no spark was generated and current flowed, the problem was that it could be mistakenly thought that a ball had formed.

This invention was made to eliminate the drawbacks of the conventional ones as described above, and it is possible to detect a short circuit between the electric torch and a thin metal wire by applying a voltage to the electric torch to an extent that no spark occurs before sparking. The purpose of the present invention is to provide a semiconductor assembly device with the following features. An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

The structure of the present invention is exactly the same as that of the conventional structure shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, so the description thereof will be omitted. The configuration is the same as that shown in FIG. 1, but the current detector 4 is different from the conventional one in that the current detector 4 performs the detection operation twice, once before sparking and when sparking.

Next, the operation of wire bonding is also the same as the conventional one shown in FIG.

That is, in FIG. 1, when the electric torch 2 comes under the capillary tip 5, a voltage is applied to the cable to the extent that the electric torch 2 and the thin metal wire 6 do not cause sparks. At this time, if the electric torch 2 and the thin metal wire 6 are short-circuited, a current will flow, and if there is no short-circuit, no current will flow. This is checked with a current detector 4, and if current is flowing, the device is stopped. If no current flows, reapply the normal voltage for sparking. Then, the current is detected again, and if current flows, it is determined that a spark has occurred, and if no current flows, it is determined that there was no spark, and the device is stopped. In the above embodiment, as shown in Fig. 1, the cable 3 for sparking is also used for short-circuit checking of the thin metal wire 6, but as shown in Fig. 3, a separate check power source (Fig. A cable 12 and another current detector 4 may also be attached via a cable (not shown). As described above, according to the present invention, the formation of a ball can be reliably detected with high accuracy by checking in advance for the phenomenon that no spark occurs when a thin metal wire short-circuits with an electric torch. be.
