Abstract

See full text

An ultrasonic generator for providing power to a bonding apparatus having a bonding horn which is brought into contact with respective conductive pads and which carries a wire to be dispensed for interconnection therebetween includes a circuit for applying a voltage at an ultrasonic frequency to the bonding horn to produce a bonding current in the horn, and a monitor for monitoring the bonding current applied to the bonding horn. A circuit is provided for maintaining a zero phase difference between the applied voltage and the monitored current. In addition, a circuit is provided for continuously monitoring and controlling the current which is delivered to the bonding horn to produce a current waveform of a predetermined controllable pattern.
