1.1 Notes on safety

1 BO ND IN G

1.1 Notes on sa fety

1.1.1 Safety at work

GERINGER Halbleitertechnik bonding

machines are state of the art and comply with

safety-related rules and regulations.

R I S K O F D E A T H

Persons with cardiac pacemakers or

implanted medical devices must keep at

least one metre clear of bonding machi-

nes. Bonding machines operate with

strong electromagnetic fields. These

fields can affect cardiac pacemakers.

1.1.2 Hazards when bonding

D A N G E R

Keep well clear of the working zone of the

machine and indexer while the equipment

is in operation. Moving machinery hazard.

Operate the machine only with all covers

and doors closed. Do not remove covers

while the machine is in operation. Always

return the bond head to its home position

before penetrating the machine's working

zone. Moving machinery hazard.

Always comply with the manufacturer's

instructions when handling forming gas.

D A N G E R

Do not work on the machine at the same

time as other persons.

Use the bonder only

• in compliance with the manufacturer's

intended use

• in perfect safety-related working order.

Incorrect use means risk of fatal injury to

the user and others and can cause

damage to the machine and property.

Have safety-related defects repaired

immediately by trained, qualified specia-

lists.

C A U T I O N

Do not position the microscope and

microscope holder in the working zone of

the bond head. Crash hazard.

1.1.3 Safety device

You can stop the bonder at any time, regardless of

its operating status, by pressing the EMERGENCY

STOP switch. The switch latches in the depressed

position.

C A U T I O N

Faults must be rectified by trained, quali-

fied personnel working in compliance

with all safety precautions. To restart the bonder after an emergency stop:

ÆMake sure that the fault which lead to actuation

of the EMERGENCY STOP switch has been

rectified.

ÆReset the EMERGENCY STOP switch: turn the

knurled ring of the switch clockwise.

ÆSwitch on the bonder.

Software Manual A-1

1.1.4 EBP

The operator must have a conductive connection

to the machine in order to prevent electronic com-

ponents being damaged by electrostatic

discharge. This connection is made to the EBP

(Earth Bonding Point), which prevents the static

charge passing from the operator to the machine.

C A U T I O N

Components can be damaged if you work

without a connection to the EBP. Always

put on the earthing strap before touching

components.

ÆAlways wear the earthing strap in such a way

that it remains in contact with your skin.

ÆPlug the cable connected to the earthing strap

into the bonder's EBP.

1. 2 Back ground knowledge: bonding A die bonder is designed to pick up a small compo-

nent (the die or chip) from a carrier (wafer, waffle

pack, gel pack, bowl feeder, tape feeder) and bond

it onto a larger component (the substrate).

Bonder

The substrates enter the bonder from the left and

are carried clamping station by the indexer, before

exiting from the machine on the right. An input

system can be mounted on the left and/or an

output system on the right if the machine is not

integrated directly into a production line.

Bond process

The chips are bonded to the substrate by means of

an adhesive process or a thermal process (eutec-

tic process)

Adhesive process

The bond head (dispenser or stamp) applies the

adhesive to the substrate.

Stamp

A stamp dips into the epoxy adhesive in the squee-

gee unit and applies the adhesive to the substrate.

Dispenser

The dispenser applies the epoxy adhesive to the

substrate from a cartridge by means of a capillary

needle.

Moving wafer camera

The MWC is used to find the next chip on the wafer

clamped in position on the wafer frame.

Bonding process

When scanning is completed the bond head unit

(die collet) moves into position over the chip, the

chip ejector separates the chip from the wafer foil,

the DCL tool carries it (held by vacuum) to the

bond position. The chip is released at this position

and a slight pressure exerted to press it into the

epoxy adhesive applied beforehand.

The wafer frames are removed from the wafer

magazine in the chip-handling system and retur-

ned to the magazine once the chips have been

removed.

I M P O R T A N T

The subsections below contain descriptions of

all menus and their parameters. Read this sec-

tion carefully and familiarise yourself with its

contents before you start bonding.

1.3.1 Setup Tool

If you press any button during initialisation the boot

process is interrupted and the system displays the

Setup Tool screen (text prompt to press any but-

ton).

When you press Quit to shut down the bonder, the

Start menu shown below is displayed:

„ Restart Application: Starts the machine soft-

ware. Setup Tool is exited, the ordinary boot

process is resumed and a startup script is pro-

cessed. The machine powers up to the default

mode.

„ Reboot System: Reboots the operating system

and the machine software

„ Shutdown System: Shuts down the operating

system to a defined state for Power Off

„ Setup Tool: Starts the input masks for the custo-

mer-specific bonder configuration

Setup Tool

The Setup Tool window can only be accessed

through a login mechanism with two user levels.

User levels Meaning

operator The default is no password. Functions

marked black in the menu cannot be

accessed

User levels Meaning

admin All functions can be accessed, once

the correct password has been

entered

System Settings

The current system time and date are displayed

and can be corrected if necessary.

Networking

Settings for the network.

TCP IP Settings

„ Host name: computer name

„ IP Address: IP address

„ Network Mask: Network mask

If the bonder is disconnected from the network,

"0.0.0.0" should be entered in the "IP Address" and

"Network Mask" fields.

The computer has to be rebooted before it can be

initialised with a new IP address.

Routing

Settings for two network routes and a standard

gateway.

NTP Configuration

Time synchronisation with a server of your choice.

In order to avoid compilation errors when remote

maintenance is performed for the bonder, it has to be synchronised with the server on which the soft-

ware changes are implemented.

Hostdatabase

Camera image (1)

The bonder has the following cameras:

„ MWC camera: The high-resolution moving wafer

camera images the positions of small chips on

the wafer frame so that the PRU can compute

the exact position

„ DCL camera: The moving DCL camera (die col-

let camera) views the target area on the compo-

nent surface where the chip is to be placed. The

PRU uses this image to compute the exact bond

place

„ MWC camera (low res.): The low-resolution

moving wafer camera images the positions of

large chips on the wafer frame so that the PRU

can compute the exact position

„ Lookup camera (optional): The optional, fixed

lookup camera is used for alignment from

below, generally with the flip-chip unit

When the machine is at a standstill you can view

the image of each camera by clicking the corre-

sponding radio button. When production is in pro-

gress the camera image currently in use is dis-

1.3.3 Keyboard functions

You will frequently have to use the function keys on

the keyboard when you program bonding

sequences.

The functions of the keys for controlling production

are as follows:

START

Press "start" to start automatic production. Produc-

tion resumes at the position shown in the status

line.

STOP

Press "stop" to terminate automatic production. A

step in progress is completed.

HOME

Press "home" to reset all axes to their home posi-

tions.

RESTART

Enables a restart

STEP

Press "step" to continue production in step-by-step

mode. Note that the steps do not correspond to full

production cycles (i.e. chip separation, transporta-

tion and placing). In each step, production advan-

ces to a pause point defined in the program.

F1 to F10

The software assigns functions to keys F1 through

F10; these functions vary, depending on which

menu is active and on the input field in which the

cursor is located. Additional functions can be

called for some input fields when you press the "fn"

key. The blue colouring indicates function keys

that have "fn" functions.

1.3.4 Entering coordinates

Broadly speaking, there are two ways of pro-

gramming coordinates:

Teach-in

Use the trackball to move the mechanical units to

the desired position and use the train-in method to

save the corresponding coordinates. This involves

the following steps:

ÆClick to move the cursor into one of the fields

defining the coordinates of the position you want

to train.

Æ<F10> Press the key or touch the "F10: Move"

button to activate the trackball.

ÆUse the trackball to move to the positions. Press

the <+> key to increase the speed of movement

or the <–> key to reduce speed over a range of

10 stages.

Æ<F6> Press the key or touch the "F6: Trace“ but-

ton to accept values in the numeric input fields.

Advantage: There is no risk of collision, because

the current position is saved.

Numeric entry

C A U T I O N

When entering coordinates for the DCL

unit and executing movements to positi-

ons defined by coordinates with the "F1:

Move to" function, make sure that the

DCL tool does not contact the wafer or

collide with other parts. Numeric input of the coordinates via the keyboard: ÆEnter the values in the numeric input fields.

ÆPress "enter" to confirm.

ÆClick the "F1:Move to" button or press <F1> on

the keyboard to move to the point defined by the

coordinates you entered. The input fields

directly related to the active field are also taken

into account. For example, if the cursor is in the

input field of the X component, the movement is

also executed for the corresponding Y compo-

nent and the Z component, if applicable.

1.5.10 WFS Learn Chip Index (O 31)

You can train the chip index (spacing in X and Y

between chips) manually or automatically.

Training the chip position automatically

The starting point for indexing is the chip centre

trained with mode 30 (WFS Learn Chip). The refe-

rence patterns stored in memory are used along

with the chip dimensions to move to each neigh-

bouring chip in turn (in the sequence 1 to 4), so that

the distances in X and Y can be calculated.

Training the chip position automatically

You must move the crosshairs to significant points

on neighbouring chips, so that the program can

calculate the chip index.

ÆMove the crosshairs to the bottom right edge of

the first chip and click the left mouse button.

ÆMove to the next chip on the left, move the cros-

shairs to the bottom right edge of this chip and

click the left mouse button.

ÆMove to the chip above the second chip, move

the crosshairs to the bottom right edge of this

chip and click the left mouse button. The chip

1.5.11 MWC Camera Scale (O 51)

Scaling of the optical system, the moving wafer

camera and the fixed wafer table.

Determines the ratio between the resolution of the

camera and the measuring system of the coordina-

tes table. The correlation between one pixel in the

camera's image and µm of travel is computed.

You can perform scaling manually or automati-

cally.

The procedure is the same as that for Mode 1 (see

"1.5.1 DCL Camera Scale (O 1)" on page 1-18)

cant point.

I M P O R T A N T

Always make sure that you position accurately

at the point you select, as otherwise the scaling

factor will not be computed correctly.

ÆClick "enter" to confirm that you have moved the

crosshairs to the point. The program moves the

camera a defined distance and expects that you

will again move the crosshairs (now at the top

right of the screen) to the significant pattern ori-

ginally marked.

ÆClick "enter" to confirm that you have moved the

crosshairs to the point.

ÆRepeat the procedure three times with the same

to select one of the following transformations:

„ Standard: standard transformation

„ Shift+Rotate (1st): An offset is calculated from

the position of the first point. The position of the

second point is obtained as a rotational offset

described around the first point as the centre.

„ Shift+Rotate (2nd): An offset is calculated from

the position of the second point. The position of

the first point is obtained as a rotational offset

described around the second point as the cen-

tre.

> Flags > Calipers

Calipers (search lines) are lines normal to an edge

along which a search is conducted for a significant

brightness transition in order to identify the position

of the edge.

The entire measuring area is divided up uniformly

by the number of calipers defined in the "total"

field.

The entries in the "start" and "end" fields restrict

the measuring area. If the value of "start" is lower

than the value of "end", the area between the two

is the restricted measuring area. If the value of

"start" is greater than the value of "end", the two

outside areas are used as the restricted measuring

area.

pers

Calipers (search lines) are lines normal to an edge

along which a search is conducted for a significant

brightness transition in order to identify the position

of the edge.

The theoretical measuring area is divided up uni-

formly by the number of calipers defined in the

"total" field.

The entries in the "start" and "end" fields restrict

the measuring area. If the value of "start" is lower

than the value of "end", the area between the two

is the restricted measuring area. If the value of

"start" is greater than the value of "end", the two

outside areas are defined as the restricted measu-

ring area.

Calipers for edge search

Lookup camera (A 40) > Align Data 1/2 > EDC -

Parameter > Calipers

Calipers (search lines) are lines normal to an edge

along which a search is conducted for a significant

brightness transition in order to identify the position

of the edge.

The theoretical measuring area is divided up uni-

formly by the number of calipers defined in the

"total" field.

The entries in the "start" and "end" fields restrict

the measuring area. If the value of "start" is lower

than the value of "end", the area between the two

is the restricted measuring area. If the value of

"start" is greater than the value of "end", the two

outside areas are defined as the restricted measu-

ring area.

"Mode" menu:

„ Train the substrate positions: (see "1.5.5 Learn

Substrate Positions (O 9)" on page 1-25)

„ Train the module positions: (see "1.5.6 Learn
