A press plate mainly includes a plate and a probe. The plate has an opening which corresponds to a chip of the substrate and inner finger thereof, and the probe is elastically attached to the edge of the opening for wire bond checking. After the wire bonding process, the wire connecting the chip and the inner finger of the substrate and the probe of the wire bond checking system form a loop. Then a current is sent to the substrate from the wire bond checking system to check for the occurrence of wire occurring lift bond or missing wire.

A thermal board is used for bonding wires in semiconductor manufacturing process for providing high temperature to increase the wire bonding efficiency while preventing the die paddle of a lead frame from being oxidized. The thermal board has a base board and a platform disposed on the base board. The platform has a center portion defined therein a chamber to receive the die paddle. A plurality of supporting posts are formed on the bottom of the chamber to support the die paddle so that the die paddle does not directly contact with the bottom of the chamber.

A base mainly includes a heating plate and a probe. The probe is attached to the surface of a heating plate which serves to place a substrate having an ball pad on a lower surface facing the probe of the heating plate. The probe contacts the ball pad of the lower surface of the substrate to form a closed loop for wire bond checking while the substrate is placed on the heating plate. When processing the wire bond, the wire connecting the chip and the ball pad of the substrate and the probe connecting to the wire bond checking system form a loop. Then a current is sent to the substrate from the wire bond checking system to check for wire lift bond or missed wire. When the wire bond checking system finds an occurrence of lift bond or missing wire, the wire bonding process stops immediately to avoid unnecessary wire bonding.
