Kulicke & Soffa is a leading provider of semiconductor, LED and electronic assembly solutions serving the global automotive, consumer, communications, computing and industrial markets.

"The Maxµm ultra performs 10% faster than its predecessor, the industry-leading Maxµm plus™.
The Maxµm ultra incorporates many technological advancements, making it the premier choice for today's complex packaging applications. A new bond force control system with piezo sensor technology allows for increased bond head velocity without increasing tool impact force. A new microprocessor control system provides for faster processing power as well as PC-style USB functionality for easier software and data handling. An enhanced wire feed/tensioning system reduces friction on the wire feed path for looping consistency at higher speeds.

Advanced Low Friction Wire Feed System
Fully Programmable BITS System
Latest PC-based Processing Power
Small Ball Detection
Maxµm ultra Enhanced Performance
UPH +10% over the Maxµm plus

Maxµm Ultra

The ps(Power Series) IConnPS ball bonder, which replaced the Maxum Ultra ball bonder and improves IC inter-connect performance with expanded technology that addresses advanced packaging requirements, copper wire bonding, and ultra fine pitch capability.

IConn

The industry-leading performance of the award-winning Maxµm™ high speed ball bonder is taken to an even higher level with the introduction of the new Maxµmplus. Users who want greater throughput and finer pitch capability can expect:
 UPH 10% greater than the Maxµm on most applications
 + 2.5 µm accuracy at 3 sigma
 35 µm ultra-fine-pitch process capability
This yield-enhancing accessory consists of the following...
 Innovative Moving EFO Wand Technology
 Electronic Flame-Off from directly below the wire axis
 Specially designed, Fine-tipped EFO Wand and 8X Mag Optics
...resulting in these benefits:
 Improved Free Air Ball and Bonded Ball Concentricity
 Reduced "Small Ball" occurrence
 Better intermetalic coverage and higher bond strength
 Greater yield for ultra-fine-pitch processes 
A reduced-friction wire feed path for wire down to 15 µm diameter and more efficient X-Y table motion help reduce wire cycle times to 63.0 msec. Advanced teaching and calibration software improve overall accuracy to ± 2.5 µm. This combination allows ultra-fine-pitch bonding of devices at speeds that are as much as 10% faster than the Maxµm — already the industry benchmark for accuracy and throughput.
