5. Process Flow is a “recipe” for the process –Shows what can and can not be made –Gives insight into performance capabilities and limitations Back-End Processes –Die attach options (eutectic, preform,conductive epoxy) Stresses the die –Bonding Wire bonding Bump bonding –Packaging Many packaging options Package Costs can be large so defective die should be eliminated before packaging Review from Last Time
