Patent number: 9893033Abstract: An electrically conductive lead is formed using a bonding tool. After bonding the wire to a metal surface and extending a length of the wire beyond the bonding tool, the wire is clamped. Movement of the bonding tool imparts a kink to the wire at a location where the wire is fully separated from any metal element other than the bonding tool. A forming element, e.g., an edge or a blade skirt provided at an exterior surface of the bonding tool can help kink the wire. Optionally, twisting the wire while tensioning the wire using the bonding tool can cause the wire to break and define an end. The lead then extends from the metal surface to the end, and may exhibit a sign of the torsional force applied thereto.Type: GrantFiled: April 12, 2016Date of Patent: February 13, 2018Assignee: Invensas CorporationInventors: Belgacem Haba, Reynaldo Co, Rizza Lee Saga Cizek, Wael Zohni
