| Abstract | The use of Cu wire for thermosonic ball bonding presents several advantages over Au wire. These advantages include significant cost savings due to cheaper raw material cost, higher electrical conductivity for faster die functionality, and much slower intermetallic compound (IMC) growth than Au wire. There are still some challenges that must be overcome, however, before Cu wire bonding can be successful. Since Cu is much harder than Au there is the potential to cause damage to the bond pad or other underlying layers of the die. Oxidation of the Cu wire can also act to inhibit second bond formation, which can result in increased wire bond no-stick rates. Cu oxidation can also result in a very short spool lifetime once the wire has been exposed to the atmosphere. This study focuses on the manufacturability and reliability of using Cu wire for ball bonding in a high volume DRAM production environment. Wire bonding first bond parameters were optimized, and the process was characterized through bond integrity testing (BIT). Package reliability was determined through environmental tests that included HAST, T/C-B, and HTS. IMC growth in the Al-Cu system was characterized and compared to the Al-Au system. Electrical test data of live packages bonded with Cu wire was also compared to that of packages bonded with Au wire to determine if there was any amount of performance or DRAM refresh degradation caused by the Cu wire. This was done at both the individual package level and module level. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
