Bond Wire Break Detection with a Fiber Optic Pair

To detect when a bonding wire breaks

Description

A pair of fiber optics in opposed mode are located below the bond wire. When the wire breaks and falls through the beam, an adjustable one-shot output pulse is energized.

This application does not require a consistent positioning of the bonding wire.
The dual fiber D12 series has a unique, ac-coupled amplifier that senses tiny signal changes when the target moves through the beam.
