ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for applying interconnect bumps to an integrated circuit comprising a wedge bonder assembly (10) including a bonding tool (14) adapted to be selectively moved relative to the integrated circuit (42) and to transmit ultrasonic force to bond wire or ribbon (62) located between the bonding tool (14) and the integrated circuit (42) to the integrated circuit and form an interconnect bump (63), the bonding tool (14) defining a passage (44) through which wire or ribbon (50) is passed to be brought into contact with the integrated circuit (42) and an edge (38) positioned and adapted to weaken wire or ribbon (50) as the bonding tool (14) is moved to the point at which the bonding tool (14) is closest to the integrated circuit (42), the wedge bonder assembly being adapted to move the bonding tool (14) so as to separate the interconnect bump (63) from the wire or ribbon (50) proximal of the bump.
