What it is

The Disco DAD 651 is a model of automatic dicing saw produced by Disco Corporation.[1]

How it works

General reference — not yet source-verified

Automatic dicing saws use a rotating diamond-impregnated blade to cut along scribe lines between die on a wafer. The blade is typically mounted on a high-speed spindle and is cooled by a stream of deionized water during cutting.

Where it fits in the process flow

General reference — not yet source-verified

Dicing saws are used in semiconductor fabrication as a back-end process step, following wafer fabrication and any thinning (grinding/polishing) steps. The dicing operation separates the wafer into individual die, which are then picked and placed for packaging or further assembly.

Dicing saws operate downstream of lithography, etch, deposition, and wafer-level test steps, and upstream of die attach, wire bonding, and encapsulation processes.

Applications

General reference — not yet source-verified

In addition to semiconductor die separation, dicing saws are used for singulating microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) devices, light-emitting diodes (LEDs), and other microfabricated components from their substrate.
