Description

Wire bonding device

The invention relates to a wire bonding device.

When bonding wires to electrodes of a semiconductor wafer, ball bonding is performed. In ball welding, the tip of the wire protruding from the tip of the capillary is melted to form a free air ball. Then, the airless ball is pressed against the electrode. Airless balloons are molten metal and are therefore more prone to oxidation. Oxidation of airless balloons may cause poor connection to the electrodes.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] For example, Patent Documents 1 and 2 disclose a technique for supplying gas to the vicinity of a joint region where the airless balloon is formed in order to suppress oxidation of the airless balloon. When a gas is provided to suppress the airless balloon oxidation, it is desirable to physically surround the joint area as much as possible to retain the gas. On the other hand, from the viewpoint of workability, it is desirable to secure the work space without arranging solid component parts in an area where work such as replacement of parts is performed. Therefore, ensuring a good joint quality conflicts with improvement in workability, and a technology that allows these factors to coexist is desired.

Therefore, the present invention provides a wire bonding apparatus that can ensure the good bonding quality and improve the workability.

[Means for Solving the Problems] One method of the present invention is a wire bonding device for bonding wires to electrodes provided on a semiconductor wafer, and the method includes a capillary tube for bonding wires to electrodes, and an inert gas region formed around the capillary tube. A chamber having a first chamber portion, a second chamber portion different from the first chamber portion, and a chamber that moves at least one of the first chamber portion and the second chamber portion relative to the capillary The movable part is a first form that surrounds the periphery of the capillary by the first chamber part and the second chamber part, and is moved by moving at least one of the first chamber part and the second chamber part. The second aspect in which a portion of the periphery of the capillary is open is switched to each other, and at least one of the first chamber portion and the second chamber portion includes a gas supply portion for forming an inert gas region.

According to this device, the movable part moves at least one of the first chamber part and the second chamber part, thereby switching from the second form to the first form. In the first aspect, the periphery of the capillary is surrounded by the first chamber portion and the second chamber portion. Therefore, it is easy to cause the inert gas to stagnate around the capillary tube, so that the airless balloon oxidation can be suppressed. In addition, the movable portion moves at least one of the first chamber portion and the second chamber portion in opposite directions, thereby switching from the first mode to the second mode. In the second aspect, a part of the periphery of the capillary is opened, so that a working space can be secured. Therefore, according to this device, workability can be improved. With this, the wire bonding device can ensure the good bonding quality and improve the workability of wire bonding.

[Effects of the Invention] According to the present invention, there is provided a wire bonding device which can ensure both good bonding quality and workability.

Hereinafter, the method for implementing the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the description of the drawings, the same element is labeled with the same symbol, and repeated description is omitted.

The wire bonding apparatus 1 shown in FIG. 1 bonds wires to electrodes of a semiconductor wafer or a substrate. The wire bonding apparatus 1 includes a base unit 2 (base portion), a capillary unit 3, and a chamber unit 4. The wire bonding device 1 includes other components such as a housing, a control device, and a feeder, but these components are omitted in the following description and drawings.

After the wire bonding device 1 holds the wire slightly protruding from the capillary unit 3, a free air ball is formed at the tip of the protruding wire. Then, the wire bonding apparatus 1 performs ball bonding. Specifically, the airless ball is pressed on the electrode of the semiconductor wafer by the capillary unit 3. By this operation, a wire is bonded to the electrode.

Here, when performing ball welding, as described above, airless balls are formed at the ends of the wires. The airless balloon is, for example, molten copper, and therefore is easily oxidized. Therefore, the wire bonding apparatus 1 adopts a closed form (a first form) as shown in FIG. 1, and the chamber unit 4 forms an inert gas region S1 as a region that suppresses the oxidation of airless balloons. The chamber unit 4 blows an inert gas (for example, nitrogen) toward a region where no air balloon is disposed to form an inert gas region S1 (see FIGS. 1 and 6). Furthermore, the chamber unit 4 physically surrounds a region where the inert gas is blown. Therefore, the inert gas remains in the enclosed area, and thus a good inert gas region S1 can be maintained.

Hereinafter, a specific configuration of the wire bonding apparatus 1 will be described. In the description of the wire bonding device 1, for convenience of explanation, the vertical direction D1 (predetermined direction), the front-rear direction D2 (first direction), and the left-right direction D3 (second direction) are used. These directions are relative directions viewed from the operator who operates the wire bonding apparatus 1. For example, the vertical direction D1 may be referred to as a direction along the vertical direction or an extending direction of the capillary 6 described later. The front-rear direction D2 is a direction from the wire bonding device 1 toward the operator, and the operator side is set to "front" and the device side is set to "rear". The left-right direction D3 may also be referred to as directions orthogonal to the up-down direction D1 and the front-rear direction D2, respectively. The "right" and "left" mentioned here are "right" and "left" for convenience of explanation. "Right" and "left" correspond to "right" and "left" when an operator standing on the front of the wire bonding device 1 observes it.

The base unit 2 is a base that supports the capillary unit 3 and the chamber unit 4. While the wire bonding apparatus 1 is operating, the base unit 2 maintains a predetermined position. The capillary unit 3 and the chamber unit 4 are provided so as to be movable with respect to the base unit 2. For example, the capillary unit 3 moves back and forth in the vertical direction D1.

The capillary unit 3 includes a capillary 6 and a capillary arm 7. The capillary 6 is wire-bonded to an electrode of a semiconductor wafer. The capillary 6 is a cylindrical member extending in the vertical direction D1. The upper end of the capillary 6 is detachably held on the capillary arm 7. The capillary 6 has a through hole extending from the upper end side to the lower end side, and an opening is provided at the lower end of the capillary 6. A wire is inserted into the through hole. The capillary tube 6 has a configuration (not shown) that switches the state where the wire is held and the state where the wire is released. The capillary arm 7 connects the capillary 6 to the base unit 2. The capillary arm 7 is a cantilever beam extending in the front-rear direction D2. The rear end of the capillary arm 7 is connected to the base unit 2 so as to be movable back and forth in the vertical direction D1. The front end of the capillary arm 7 detachably holds the upper end of the capillary 6.

The chamber unit 4 includes a left chamber unit 4L and a right chamber unit 4R. One of the left chamber unit 4L and the right chamber unit 4R is relatively movable with respect to the other. Specifically, the left chamber unit 4L is fixed to the base unit 2. That is, the left chamber unit 4L does not perform any movement. On the other hand, the right chamber unit 4R is relatively movable with respect to the base unit 2. In other words, the right chamber unit 4R is relatively movable with respect to the left chamber unit 4L fixed on the base unit 2.

The left chamber unit 4L includes a left arm 8L, a left gas supply section 9L (second supply section), and a left chamber block 11L (second chamber section). The base end side of the left arm 8L is fixed to the base unit 2. The left chamber block 11L is fixed to the front end side of the left arm 8L.

The right chamber unit 4R includes a right arm 8R, a right gas supply section 9R (first supply section), and a right chamber block 11R (first chamber section). In this implementation method, the left chamber block 11L and the right chamber block 11R constitute the chamber 11. Therefore, the left chamber block 11L and the right chamber block 11R are different from each other. The left gas supply portion 9L and the right gas supply portion 9R constitute a gas supply portion 9.

The base end side of the right arm 8R is fixed to the base unit 2. The right chamber block 11R is fixed to the front end side of the right arm 8R. The right arm 8R includes a fixed arm 12 and a movable arm 13. The base end of the fixing arm 12 is fixed with respect to the base unit 2. The movable arm 13 is connected to the fixed arm 12. The movable arm 13 is L-shaped. The base end 13 a of the movable arm 13 is rotatably connected to the fixed arm 12. A right chamber block 11R is fixed to the front end 13b of the movable arm 13. That is, the movable arm 13 is rotated relative to the fixed arm 12, whereby the right chamber block 11R is relatively moved with respect to the left chamber block 11L.

As shown in FIG. 2, the movable arm 13 is connected to the fixed arm 12 by a bolt 14. The shaft portion 14 a of the bolt 14 is inserted into the insertion hole 13 h of the movable arm 13. The front end of the shaft portion 14 a is screwed into the connection hole 12 a of the fixed arm 12. Then, the movable arm 13 is sandwiched between the head 14 b of the bolt 14 and the fixed arm 12. The diameter of the shaft portion 14 a is slightly smaller than the inner diameter of the insertion hole 13 h, so that the movable arm 13 can be smoothly rotated relative to the bolt 14. The connection hole 12a, the insertion hole 13h, and the bolt 14 constitute a movable mechanism 15 (a movable portion).

The right chamber unit 4R may further include a latch mechanism 17 as necessary. The latch mechanism 17 holds the position of the movable arm 13. Specifically, the position of the right chamber block 11R in the closed form (the first form, see FIG. 1) is maintained, and the position of the right chamber block 11R in the open form (the second form, see FIG. 6) is maintained. . The latch mechanism 17 includes a first suction portion 18 and a second suction portion 19.

The first suction section 18 includes a first magnet M1 and a second magnet M2. When the wire bonding apparatus 1 is in a closed form, the first suction section 18 maintains the position of the right chamber block 11R. That is, the first suction portion 18 maintains the position of the movable arm 13 with respect to the fixed arm 12. This maintenance is based on the attractive force between the first magnet M1 and the second magnet M2. Therefore, when a force in the opposite direction to the attraction force is applied to the movable arm 13, the state of maintaining the position of the right chamber block 11R is released.

The second suction section 19 includes a first magnet M1 and a third magnet M3. When the wire bonding device 1 is in an open form, the second suction unit 19 maintains the position of the right chamber block 11R. That is, the second suction unit 19 maintains the position of the movable arm 13 with respect to the fixed arm 12. This maintenance is based on the attractive force between the first magnet M1 and the third magnet M3. Therefore, when a force in the opposite direction to the attraction force is applied to the movable arm 13, the state of maintaining the position of the right chamber block 11R is released.

When the wire bonding apparatus 1 is operating, various parts are mechanically moved in the wire bonding apparatus 1. According to the first suction section 18, the position of the right chamber block 11R can be suppressed from being deviated due to vibration or the like caused by the movement of these components. Therefore, the inert gas region S1 can be appropriately maintained while the wire bonding apparatus 1 is operating.

In addition, according to the second suction section 19, the position of the right chamber block 11R can be maintained when the capillary 6 is replaced by an operator. For example, even when the worker accidentally touches the movable arm 13, the position of the right chamber block 11R can be maintained.

The latch mechanism 17 may further include a first buffer portion 21 and a second buffer portion 22.

The first buffer portion 21 attenuates the momentum of the movable arm 13 when switching from the open form to the closed form. Therefore, collision of the movable arm 13 with the fixed arm 12 can be suppressed. That is, when switching from the open form to the closed form, the movable arm 13 is weakened by the first buffer portion 21 and then is held by the first suction portion 18. Similarly, the second buffer portion 22 attenuates the momentum of the movable arm 13 when switching from the closed mode to the open mode. That is, when the self-closing mode is switched to the open mode, the movable arm 13 is weakened by the second buffer portion 22 and then is held by the second suction portion 19.

The first buffer portion 21 includes a fourth magnet M4 and a fifth magnet M5. The fourth magnet M4 is disposed on the fixed arm 12. The fifth magnet M5 is disposed on the movable arm 13. In the closed configuration, the fourth magnet M4 and the fifth magnet M5 face each other. That is, the first buffering portion 21 functions immediately before the transition to the closed form is completed. The first buffer portion 21 weakens the momentum of the movable arm 13 by the repulsive force generated by the fourth magnet M4 and the fifth magnet M5. Therefore, the same polarity of the fourth magnet M4 and the fifth magnet M5 faces.

The second buffer portion 22 includes a fourth magnet M4 and a sixth magnet M6. The sixth magnet M6 is disposed on the fixed arm 12. In the open configuration, the fourth magnet M4 and the sixth magnet M6 face each other. That is, the second buffering portion 22 functions immediately before the transition to the open form is completed. The fourth magnet M4 and the sixth magnet M6 face the same poles.

Next, the left chamber block 11L and the right chamber block 11R will be described in detail.

As shown in FIG. 3, the left chamber block 11L has a third surrounding surface P3 and a left gas supply hole 9La. The left chamber block 11L is arranged on the left side of the capillary 6. The front end 11La of the left chamber block 11L is located more rearward than the front end surface 7 c of the capillary arm 7. That is, the left chamber block 11L partially surrounds the left side surface 7 a of the capillary arm 7. A portion facing the left side surface 7a of the capillary arm 7 is a third surrounding surface P3. The third surrounding surface P3 may also be referred to as a surface orthogonal to the left-right direction D3.

As shown in FIG. 4, a chamber plate 16 is mounted on the bottom surface 11Lb of the left chamber block 11L. The chamber plate 16 is provided with a through hole 16 a through which the capillary 6 is inserted. The chamber plate 16 extends from the third surrounding surface P3 toward a right chamber block 11R described later. The chamber plate 16 is located below the bottom surface 7d of the capillary arm 7 when the capillary arm 7 is at the lowermost position. That is, the chamber plate 16 covers the bottom surface 7 d of the capillary arm 7.

As shown in FIG. 3 again, the left gas supply hole 9La has a discharge opening formed in the third surrounding surface P3. The left gas supply hole 9La ejects the inert gas supplied from the left gas supply pipe 9Lb from the discharge opening. The axis A2 of the discharge opening of the left gas supply hole 9La intersects the axis A1 of the capillary 6.

The right chamber block 11R includes a first surrounding surface P1, a second surrounding surface P2, a first right gas supply hole 9Ra, and a second right gas supply hole 9Rc. The right chamber block 11R is disposed on the right side of the capillary 6. The right chamber block 11R extends from the right side surface 7 b of the capillary arm 7 to the front end surface 7 c to surround the capillary arm 7. A portion facing the right side surface 7b of the capillary arm 7 is a first surrounding surface P1, and a portion facing the front end surface 7c of the capillary arm 7 is a second surrounding surface P2.

The first surrounding surface P1 may also be referred to as a surface facing the third surrounding surface P3 and orthogonal to the left-right direction D3. The second surrounding surface P2 may also be referred to as a surface crossing the front-rear direction D2. The second surrounding surface P2 includes a right surrounding surface P2a and a left surrounding surface P2b. The right surrounding surface P2a continues to the first surrounding surface P1. The left surrounding surface P2b continues to the right surrounding surface P2a. The angle between the right enclosing surface P2a and the left enclosing surface P2b is approximately 90 degrees, and the boundary portion between the right enclosing surface P2a and the left enclosing surface P2b may also cross the front-rear direction D2 passing through the axis A1. Therefore, the right surrounding surface P2a faces the right side of the front end surface 7c of the capillary arm 7. The left surrounding surface P2b faces the left side of the front end surface 7c of the capillary arm 7. A gap is provided between the front end of the left surrounding surface P2b and the front end 11La of the left chamber block 11L.

The first right gas supply hole 9Ra has a discharge opening formed in the second surrounding surface P2, and an inert gas is ejected toward the capillary 6 from the discharge opening. The axis A3 of the discharge opening of the first right gas supply hole 9Ra passes through the axis A1.

The second right gas supply hole 9Rc has a discharge opening formed on the lower surface of the right chamber block 11R, and an inert gas is ejected from the discharge opening. When the axis A4 of the second right gas supply hole 9Rc is viewed in plan, the axis A4 is on the axis A1 and intersects the axis A2 of the left gas supply hole 9La and the axis A3 of the first right gas supply hole 9Ra.

The operation of the wire bonding apparatus 1 will be described below. The wire bonding apparatus 1 can switch between a closed form (see FIG. 1) and an open form (see FIGS. 6 and 7). When performing wire bonding, the wire bonding apparatus 1 is set to a closed form. On the other hand, when the operator performs some operations on the wire bonding apparatus 1, the wire bonding apparatus 1 is set to an open form. This operation may include an inspection operation or a maintenance operation, and examples thereof include an operation for replacing the capillary 6 and the like. This switching may be performed, for example, by the operator manually moving the movable arm 13.

In the closed form and the open form, the positions of the right chamber blocks 11R are different from each other. On the other hand, in the closed form and the open form, the positions of the left chamber block 11L are the same as each other. Furthermore, in the closed form and the open form, the position of the capillary 6 is not limited.

As shown in FIG. 5, when the wire bonding apparatus 1 is in a closed configuration, an inert gas region S1 is formed. That is, the closed form can also be referred to as a form for forming the inert gas region S1. Explaining its function, the inert gas region S1 is a region in which oxidation of airless balloons is suppressed. In contrast, if the structure is described, the inert gas region S1 is a region surrounded by at least the left chamber block 11L and the right chamber block 11R.

Specifically, the inert gas region S1 is a space surrounded by the third surrounding surface P3, the chamber plate 16, the first surrounding surface P1, the right surrounding surface P2a, and the left surrounding surface P2b. That is, the inert gas region S1 is a region surrounded by five faces. The position of the right chamber block 11R that surrounds the periphery of the capillary 6 as described above is referred to as a first position. Therefore, when the right chamber block 11R is located at the first position, a part of the right chamber block 11R (a part of the first surrounding surface P1 and the second surrounding surface P2) is located more forward than the capillary 6. When an airless balloon is formed, a capillary arm 7 is disposed above the airless balloon (see FIG. 4). Therefore, if the bottom surface 7d of the capillary arm 7 is added, the inert gas region S1 can also be referred to as a region surrounded by six surfaces.

According to this closed form, inert gas can be enclosed in the space surrounded by the third surrounding surface P3, the chamber plate 16, the first surrounding surface P1, the right surrounding surface P2a, the left surrounding surface P2b, and the bottom surface 7d of the capillary arm 7. . Therefore, the inert gas can be left in the inert gas region S1, and thus the airless balloon oxidation can be suitably suppressed.

As shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, when the wire bonding apparatus 1 is in an open configuration, a work space S2 is formed. That is, if the function is described, the open form may also be referred to as a form for forming the work space S2. That is, in the open form, a region (that is, the work space S2) that is not blocked by a solid part is formed between the operator and the front end of the capillary arm 7. In terms of its structure, the open form is a form in which the right chamber block 11R is separated from the capillary arm 7. This separated position is the second position of the right chamber block 11R.

The position of the right chamber block 11R in each axial direction will be described more specifically. First, in the vertical direction D1, the right chamber block 11R is located above the front end of the capillary arm 7 and the capillary 6. Then, in the front-rear direction D2, the right chamber block 11R is located further behind the front end of the capillary arm 7 and the capillary 6. This position may also be referred to as the front end of the capillary arm 7 and between the capillary 6 and the base unit 2. Furthermore, in the left-right direction D3, the right chamber block 11R is separated further to the right than the front end of the capillary arm 7 and the capillary 6.

That is, when the self-closed mode is switched to the open mode, the right chamber block 11R moves obliquely to the right and rearward with respect to the front end of the capillary arm 7. The configuration in which the right chamber block 11R is separated from the capillary arm 7 is realized by a movable mechanism 15. The axis AR of the bolt 14 of the movable mechanism 15 is orthogonal to the front-rear direction D2 and is inclined with respect to the up-down direction D1 and the left-right direction D3, respectively. For example, the axis AR of the bolt 14 is inclined 45 degrees with respect to the left-right direction D3. The axis AR is arranged between the capillary 6 and the base unit 2.

According to this second position, the right side surface 7b and the front end surface 7c of the capillary arm 7 can be opened. That is, the operator can visually observe the front end surface 7c side of the capillary arm 7 from the front. Further, the operator can enter from the right side surface 7 b side of the capillary arm 7 to perform the replacement operation of the capillary 6. At this time, the right chamber block 11R is located above the front end surface 7c of the capillary arm 7, so the operator can enter from the right side to the left side of the capillary arm 7 with respect to the right side surface 7b. Therefore, workability can be further improved.

According to the wire bonding device 1 of the present embodiment, the movable mechanism 15 moves the left chamber block 11L, thereby switching from the open form to the closed form. In the closed configuration, the periphery of the capillary 6 is surrounded by the left chamber block 11L and the right chamber block 11R. Therefore, the inert gas can be trapped around the capillary 6, and thus the airless balloon oxidation can be suppressed. Further, the movable mechanism 15 moves the left chamber block 11L in the opposite direction, thereby switching from the closed mode to the open mode. In the open form, a part of the periphery of the capillary 6 is opened, so that the work space S2 can be secured. Therefore, the workability of wire bonding can be improved. Thereby, the wire bonding apparatus 1 can coexist with securing of good bonding quality and improvement of workability.

The wire bonding device 1 includes a capillary 6, a left chamber block 11L, and a base unit 2 that supports the left chamber block 11L. The capillary 6 moves back and forth in the vertical direction D1 with respect to the base unit 2. The left chamber block 11L is fixed with respect to the base unit 2. The right chamber block 11R is moved away from the capillary 6 by the movable mechanism 15. With this configuration, it is not necessary to change the position of the left chamber block 11L. Therefore, while ensuring good bonding quality and improving workability of wire bonding, it is possible to simplify the configuration of the wire bonding apparatus 1.

The gas supply section 9 includes a left gas supply section 9L provided in the left chamber block 11L, and a right gas supply section 9R provided in the left chamber block 11L. With this configuration, a good inert gas region S1 can be formed around the capillary 6.

The capillary 6 is attached to the front end portion of the capillary arm 7, and the front end portion of the capillary arm 7 extends in the left-right direction D3 orthogonal to the front-rear direction D2 of the capillary 6. The left chamber block 11L has a third surrounding surface P3 crossing the left-right direction D3, which is orthogonal to the vertical direction D1 and the front-rear direction D2. The right chamber block 11R may have a first surrounding surface P1 facing the third surrounding surface P3 via the capillary 6 and a second surrounding surface P2 crossing the front-rear direction D2.

The right chamber block 11R includes a first surrounding surface P1 and a second surrounding surface P2. That is, in the closed form, the right chamber block 11R surrounds the periphery of the capillary 6 wider than the left chamber block 11L having the third surrounding surface P3. Further, in the open form, the right chamber block 11R is disposed at a position away from the capillary 6. Then, a region surrounded by the first surrounding surface P1 and the second surrounding surface P2 is opened around the capillary 6. Therefore, since a relatively wide range is opened around the capillary 6, a wide working space S2 can be secured. This can further improve the workability of wire bonding.

The right chamber block 11R can switch the first position in the closed configuration and the second position in the open configuration by the movable mechanism 15. The second position is located more rearward than the capillary 6. According to this configuration, the right chamber block 11R in the open form is disposed at a position away from the capillary 6. Therefore, a wide working space S2 can be secured, and thus the workability of wire bonding can be further improved.

The second position is located above the capillary 6. According to this configuration, the right chamber block 11R in the open form is disposed at a position further away from the capillary 6. Therefore, a wide working space S2 can be secured, and thus the workability of wire bonding can be further improved.

The present invention has been described in detail based on its implementation method. However, this invention is not limited to the said embodiment. The present invention can be modified in various ways without departing from the spirit thereof.

In the implementation method described above, the left chamber block 11L is fixed and the right chamber block 11R is movable. For example, a configuration in which the left chamber block 11L is operated in addition to the right chamber block 11R may be adopted.

In the implementation method, a gas supply unit 9 is provided in both the left chamber block 11L and the right chamber block 11R. For example, the gas supply unit 9 may be provided in only one of the left chamber block 11L and the right chamber block 11R.

In the implementation method, the second position of the right chamber block 11R is set to the upper right obliquely and further to the capillary 6. The second position of the right chamber block 11R is not limited to this arrangement as long as it can open a part of the tip of the capillary 6 and the capillary arm 7.
