What it is

The Shinkawa UTC 3000 is an IC wire bonder.[1][2]

Where it fits in the process flow

General reference — not yet source-verified

Wire bonding is performed after the die is attached to the package and before encapsulation or molding. The process connects the die bond pads to the package leads or substrate traces.

Applications

The UTC 3000 was employed in an experiment to bond pure silver wire and silver alloy wire with a diameter of 20 µm for reliability testing.[3]
