Abstract
A method for performing a wire-bonding operation in an integrated circuit utilizes a bonding tool. A wire is bonded to a first bond site in the integrated circuit, and terminated at a second bond site in the integrated circuit. The bonding and terminating steps are repeated for a plurality of additional wire bonds of the integrated circuit. At least two wire bonds in the integrated circuit are substantially perpendicular to one another at a crossing point in a plan view of the integrated circuit.
