Abstract
A fine pitch capillary bonding tool for making ball bonds having a consistent bonded ball size even though the air balls may vary in diameter is provided. The convential shaped bonding tool is provided with a novel ball constraining recess in the working tip. When an air ball is bonded it is forced into the constraining recess which has a shoulder portion for exerting a downward bonding force. The ball being bonded extrudes vertically into the constraining recess without laterial extrusion which would create mashed balls of varying diameter.
