SB-6E Bonder
This tool is used to bond 4" and 6" wafers. It is primarily used for Anodic bonding and has superior anodic bond hardware when compared to our other bonders. Other types of bonds are allowed, but a helpdesk ticket should be created and the process discussed with one of the tool engineers. Anodic power supply polarity is reversible and the top electrode is capable of tack bonding in the center prior to full wafer bonding.
