Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of cleaver processing technology, and in particular to a method for processing wedge-shaped cleavers and a fixture for processing cleavers. Background Technology
[0002] In chip packaging, the connection between the chip and the lead frame (substrate) provides the circuit connection for power and signal distribution. Wire bonding is a process that achieves this circuit connection. During the wire bonding process, the bonding wire passing through the wedge generates pressure and friction between the wedge tip and the pad metal. Therefore, wedges are usually made of materials with high hardness and toughness.
[0003] The current cleaver is mainly for Figures 1-5 The form shown mainly includes a cleaver body 1, a handle 2, a blade 3, and a blade tip 4. A guide port 5 is provided on the upper part of the cleaver body 1 to guide the bonding wire through. A vertical hole 6 is provided in the middle of the cleaver body 1, the handle 2, and the blade 3 to guide the bonding wire. The vertical hole 6 is connected to the guide port 5. A first oblique hole 7 and a second oblique hole 8 are provided in the middle of the blade tip 4. The first oblique hole 7 is funnel-shaped and guides the bonding wire leading out from the vertical hole. The second oblique hole 8 fixes the bonding wire, and an arc-shaped groove 9 is provided at the part of the blade tip 4 near the outlet of the second oblique hole 8.
[0004] Wedge-shaped wedges are typically made of hard and brittle materials such as cemented carbide, titanium alloys, and ceramics. Due to the hardness and brittleness of the wedge material, its small microstructure, high precision requirements, and high machining quality requirements, wedge machining is extremely difficult. In the production process, the wedge's external structure is usually CNC machined, but the depth-to-diameter of the wire-threading hole on the wedge is relatively large, making it difficult for CNC drilling equipment to meet the required precision. Therefore, existing methods use electrical discharge machining (EDM) to machine the wire-threading hole. A publication titled "A Deep Cavity Welding Wedge for Welding Gold Strips and Its Manufacturing Process," with publication number "CN110640413A," discloses a manufacturing process for a deep cavity welding wedge for welding gold strips, using high-precision EDM to machine the gold strip fixing hole. While this achieves the desired machining objective, and EDM can achieve the required depth-to-diameter ratio and precision, EDM is time-consuming and requires a large amount of consumable material for the tool electrodes, making it unsuitable for mass production of wedges in factories.
[0005] MPP company announced a wedge processing method using EDM. But there are the following shortcomings in the EDM method: 1, after the EDM method is processed, a subsequent polishing process is needed. 2, the EDM method can only process conductive materials, if you want to process ceramic wedge, you need to add conductive powder, which is troublesome. 3, EDM method needs to design special electrode wire, electrode wire is easy to wear, maintenance cost is high. 4, it is difficult to guarantee the machining precision of 0.05mm micro hole of wedge tip processed by EDM, and the broken hole situation is easy to appear.
