Abstract

Bonds between a contact area of a circuit of a semiconductor and a conductor are formed by applying a rotating tool to an opposed surface of the conductor or to an intervening material superposed on it. The conductor may be laminated to one or more layers of insulant material and when that material is for example polyester, the bond may be formed without prior removal of the insulant from between the contact area and the conductor; it is displaced by the effect of the tool. The areas and conductors may be in an array and the tool be brought across the members of the array in succession.
