A computerized system and method for customizing bond programs in order to
compensate first for variabilities in an integrated circuit (IC) "slave"
bonder, and second to any irregularities in a "slave" circuit positioned
on the slave bonder for attaching connecting bonds onto the IC bond pads.
According to the invention, a "master" segmentator groups the bond pads
of a "master" circuit on a master bonder into segments and stores the
reference data related to these segments in a master file. Next, a slave
regenerator, coupled to the master file, regenerates the master reference
data so that variable characteristics of the slave bonder are defined and
adaptively compensated. Finally, a slave corrector, coupled to the salve
regenerator, corrects the bond program for the slave circuit on the
adaptively compensated slave bonder. The slave bonder attaches the
connecting bonds based on the computed correct bond locations.
