The semiconductor packaging industry has attempted to use Cu wire in place of Au wire for several decades.? These attempts in the past have been made each time the industry was under severe cost pressures during cyclical downturns.? However in the past (pre 2004) attempts the industry was unable to get adequate traction towards getting any critical mass for this transition.
However, since the year 2004, as the price of Au has escalated, there has been a tremendous effort to reduce costs, and Cu wire bonding has become a number 1 priority towards the cost reduction efforts.? This presentation reviews the status of Cu wire and discusses its potential and issues.
