ABSTRACT:
The absence of a wire (40) in proper position under the bonding tool (32) of an ultrasonic wire bonder is detected by energizing the bonder transducer (14) while the wire is pulled to break it after the second bond (B) has been made. The pulling of the wire to break it changes the transducer impedance, which is monitored to signal presence or absence of a wire in its proper location.
