Abstract

Electronic device package technology is disclosed. In one example, an electronic device includes a substrate having a bond finger, a die coupled to the substrate and having a bond pad, a first bond wire coupled between the bond pad and the bond finger, and a second bond wire coupled between the bond pad and the bond finger. The first bond wire is reverse bonded between a pad solder ball on the bond pad and a finger solder ball on the bond finger. The second bond wire is forward bonded between a supplemental pad solder ball on the pad solder and the bond finger adjacent the finger solder ball. Associated systems and methods are also disclosed.

Claims (30)

1. An electronic device comprising:

a substrate having a bond finger;

a die coupled to the substrate and having a bond pad;

a first bond wire coupled between the bond pad and the bond finger, wherein the first bond wire is coupled to the bond pad with a bond pad solder ball, and wherein the first bond wire is coupled to the bond finger with a bond finger solder ball; and

a second bond wire coupled between the bond pad and the bond finger, wherein the second bond wire is coupled to the bond pad with a second bond pad solder ball, and wherein the second bond pad solder ball is coupled to the bond pad solder ball.

2. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the second bond wire is directly coupled to the bond finger.

3. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the second bond pad solder ball does not contact the bond pad.

4. The electronic device of claim 1 , further comprising a second die coupled to the substrate and having a second bond pad and a third bond wire coupled between the second die bond pad and the bond finger.

5. The electronic device of claim 4 , further comprising a fourth bond wire coupled between the second die bond pad and the bond finger.

6. The electronic device of claim 5 , wherein at least one of the third or fourth bond wires is coupled to the second die bond pad with a bond pad solder ball.

7. The electronic device of claim 6 , wherein both of the third and fourth bond wires are coupled to the second die bond pad with a bond pad solder ball.

8. The electronic device of claim 4 , wherein at least one of the third or fourth bond wires is coupled to the bond finger with a bond finger solder ball.

9. The electronic device of claim 4 , wherein at least one of the third or fourth bond wires is directly coupled to the bond finger.

10. The electronic device of claim 5 , wherein the third bond wire is coupled to the second bond pad with a third bond pad solder ball and the fourth bond wire is coupled to the second bond pad with a fourth bond pad solder ball.

11. The electronic device of claim 10 , wherein the fourth bond pad solder ball is coupled to the third bond pad solder ball.

12. The electronic device of claim 11 , wherein the fourth bond pad solder ball does not contact the second die bond pad.

13. The electronic device of claim 5 , wherein the third bond wire is coupled to the bond finger with a bond finger solder ball and the fourth bond wire is directly coupled to the bond finger.

14. The electronic device of claim 5 , wherein the third bond wire is coupled to the second die bond pad with a bond pad solder ball and to the bond finger with a bond finger solder ball.

15. The electronic device of claim 5 , wherein the fourth bond wire is coupled to the second bond pad with a bond pad solder ball and is coupled directly to the bond finger.

16. The electronic device of claim 4 , wherein the second die is disposed on the die.

17. An electronic device comprising:

a substrate having a bond finger;

a die coupled to the substrate and having a bond pad;

a first bond wire coupled between the bond pad and the bond finger, wherein the first bond wire is coupled to the bond pad with a bond pad solder ball, and wherein the first bond wire is coupled to the bond finger with a bond finger solder ball; and

a second bond wire coupled between the bond pad and the bond finger, wherein the second bond wire is coupled to the bond pad with a second bond pad solder ball, and wherein the second bond pad solder ball does not contact the bond pad.

18. An electronic device comprising:

a substrate having a bond finger;

a die coupled to the substrate and having a bond pad;

a first bond wire coupled between the bond pad and the bond finger, wherein the first bond wire is coupled to the bond pad with a bond pad solder ball, and wherein the first bond wire is coupled to the bond finger with a bond finger solder ball; and

a second bond wire coupled between the bond pad and the bond finger, wherein the second bond wire is directly coupled to the bond finger.
