Advanced UBM
Vulcanio is our response to the increasing importance of flip-chip bonding and the further miniaturization of components.
Vulcanio is a high throughput wet bench for wafers up to 300 mm. The batch tool is specifically designed for under-bump deposition with electroless plating technology on Al- and Cu-based substrates for metallization with nickel, palladium and gold. The e-less system has been successfully used for mass production by leading semiconductor manufacturers since 2009. Since then, the Vulcanio has been continuously further developed and optimized in close coordination with customers.
Main Benefits
- Specially developed and optimized for UBM (Under Bumping Metallization) of aluminum or copper pads (nickel, palladium, immersion gold)
- Unique software and hardware features ensure exceptional deposition uniformity, bath longevity and an unbeatable operating cost ratio.
- Process-specific analyzers and optimized metering ensure comprehensive process control and maximum reliability.
