Abstract

In a wire bonding apparatus including a horn driver for generating ultrasonic waves, a capillary, an ultrasonic horn formed by a symmetrical section fixed to the horn driver and an asymmetrical section having an end for mounting the capillary, the asymmetrical section is constructed by a spurious vibration suppressing structure for suppressing a vibration component of the ultrasonic horn perpendicular to a propagation direction of the ultrasonic waves with the ultrasonic horn.
