Abstract
A method and apparatus are provided for making a continuous wire bond (139) around an angle of a workpiece (101). A pivotal stage (110) having clamp assembles (104, 107) are mounted onto a base (102). A workpiece (110) is placed and secured in clamp assemblies (104, 107). A first wire bond site on a first surface is selected and formed. Workpiece (110) is pivotally rotated to a second surface position at an angle to the first surface where a second wire bond site is selected and formed, thereby making a continuous wire bond from the first selected site to the second selected site.
