Hi,
Can anyone point me to a good reference which derives the current rating/current density of Au wirebonds or ribbon? All new for me.
I am intending to pass approx. 1amp rms current through some bonds so I need to determine how many i will need in parallel without overstress.
How is the thermal limit calculated? Is it due to temperature rise in the center of the bond?
Any help appreciated.......
Cheers
