Generally, wedge bonding using ultrasonic bonding and pole bonding using thermocompression bonding are used to connect semiconductor chip electrodes and external lead portions using bonding wires. Wedge bonding involves crushing the end side of the bonding wire using ultrasonic energy to connect it to the semiconductor chip electrode and external lead. Compared to pole bonding, the connection time is two to three times longer.
Bonding has directionality, and the wiring direction is limited to in-plane directions, making it difficult to use for connecting semiconductor elements arranged radially. On the other hand, in pole bonding, one end of the bonding wire is melted electrically or with an oxygen-hydrogen flame, and the ball formed at that time is crushed while applying ultrasonic waves to a semiconductor chip electrode heated to a temperature of 250 to 400 degrees Celsius. and the other end is connected to the external lead part by ultrasonic connection.

In the present invention, the purpose of adding Ni is to make the ball shape in pole bonding close to a true sphere, increase heat resistance, make constriction between the wire rod and ball less likely to occur, and increase strength after bonding. 0.05~2.
The reason why it is limited to 0% is that if it is less than 0.05%, sufficient heat resistance cannot be obtained, and constriction is likely to occur between the wire and the ball, and the strength after bonding will decrease, and if it exceeds 2.0%, This is because the corrosion resistance of the wire decreases.

The purpose of adding Mn is to improve tensile strength without reducing corrosion resistance, and the reason why the Mn content is limited to 0.5 to 3.0% is that less than 0.5% does not provide a sufficient improvement effect. This is because if it exceeds 3.0%, work hardening will be significant, making it difficult to draw the wire.

In addition, the 3i content a is 0.02% or less, and the Fe content is 0.0%.
The reason for limiting the C0 content to 2% or less and 0.03% or less is that these elements are contained in the Al base metal as impurities, and although they are effective in improving strength, they significantly reduce corrosion resistance. Therefore, by selectively using metals with low content of these elements, the 3i content can be reduced to 0.02% or less, and the Fe content can be reduced to 0.02%.
% or less, it is necessary to suppress the Cu content to 0.03% or less, and if any of these elements exceeds this, not only will the corrosion resistance deteriorate, but the ball shape will also deteriorate, so the content of these elements must be kept at 0.03% or less. It is desirable to suppress it to 0.01% or less.

Next is the above AJI! -Ni -Mn -8i -Fe -
The purpose of adding Ti and B to the CLI alloy is to refine the crystal grains of the ingot and stabilize the quality of the wire rod by adding Ti and B at the same time.
The reason why the content is limited to 0.1% or less is that if the content exceeds this, a coarse second phase will crystallize, making wire drawing difficult.

-r:-8 alloy, and any one of Zr and rare earth elements
The purpose of adding one or more of 3n, in, and 3b is to improve the strength and corrosion resistance after bonding. However, the reason why we limited the total content of one or more of Zr and rare earth elements to 1.0% or less is that these elements can further increase the strength after bonding due to the phase opening effect with N1. This is because if the content exceeds this amount, a second phase will crystallize, making wire drawing extremely difficult. The reason for limiting it to the following is that these elements are M
Although the corrosion resistance is further improved due to the phase opening effect with n, if the content exceeds this value, a second phase will crystallize, making wire drawing extremely difficult.

As is clear from Tables 1 and 2, conventional wire N063
Not only does it have poor corrosion resistance, but it also does not form a ball, making thermocompression bonding impossible. Conventional wire N064 shows good corrosion resistance, but its sphericity is low, its constriction rate is large, and its strength after bonding is low. Although the wire Nα64 has good corrosion resistance and sphericity, its strength after bonding is low. On the other hand, it can be seen that the wire rods Nα1 to Nα44 of the present invention form balls that are close to true spheres, have small constrictions, and are capable of ball bonding. In addition, the corrosion resistance is improved due to the high Ni content.
