Control epoxy die bonding by surface characterization
In epoxy die bonding and any related die attach processes, the accurate placement and attachment of the die is crucial for process stability and the resulting component quality. The adhesive thickness or also bond line thickness (BLT) is key for a reliable die attach to a lead frame or other substrates. TopMap surface profilers from Polytec allow an automatic and reliable determination of the die orientation on the lead frame including the die tilt as well as bond line thickness measurement. This non-contact measuring method enables a fast, simple and reliable quality control of the die bonding process.
