What it is

The K&S 8060 Bonder and K&S 8060 Wire Bonder are model designations for the Kulicke & Soffa 8060.[3][1][2]

How it works

General reference — not yet source-verified

A wire bonder joins fine conductive wire between a semiconductor die and a package or substrate to create electrical interconnects.

Wire bonding equipment typically positions the workpiece, forms a bond at one contact point, spans the wire to a second point, and forms the next bond to complete the interconnect.

Where it fits in the process flow

General reference — not yet source-verified

Wire bonding belongs in the back-end assembly flow after die preparation and die attach.

Wire bonding usually precedes encapsulation or other package completion steps.

Applications

General reference — not yet source-verified

Wire bonders are used for semiconductor device packaging where die-to-package electrical connections are required.

Wire bonding supports packaged integrated circuits and other microelectronic assemblies that rely on fine interconnects.
