Embodiment Construction
[0013] According to embodiments described herein, a semiconductor package includes a bond wire or ribbon that is expected to exceed a certain temperature during operation of a transistor die included in the package. These bonding wires or ribbons are made of gold. Other bond wires or ribbons that are included in the package and are expected to be kept at lower temperatures are made of materials other than gold, such as aluminum or copper. In this way, bond wires or ribbons designed to be hottest during device operation can handle relatively high operating temperatures during the lifetime of the device without failure and / or oxidation. The remaining bond wires or ribbons are made of less expensive materials that can reliably operate at lower temperatures during the lifetime of the device.
[0014] Bonding wires generally have a (generally) circular cross-section and bonding ribbons generally have a (generally) rectangular cross-section. Various standard bonding techniques suc...
