Abstract

The determination of the mechanical properties of 25- mu m gold bonding wires based on low-load hardness measurements is reported. The experimental techniques are discussed. Measurements of yield strength made with Vickers and Berkovitch indenters were obtained that compared well with those reported from tensile tests on the same wires. Balls produced by electric arc at the ends of wires were found to have lower hardness than the as-received wires. Indentation load relaxation data taken from the balls are reported. The load relaxation data yield information on the flow stress of the material as a function of strain rate.
