The calibrated pull-off apparatus (see 2) shall include a pull-off rod (for instance, a current loop of nichrome or Kovar wire) having a cross-sectional area of 75 percent, +3 percent, -5 percent of the chip surface area.

The sample size number and accept number specified shall determine the number of die to be tested (not bonds). All die pulls shall be counted and the specified sampling, acceptance, and added sample provisions shall be observed, as applicable. The test shall be conducted using the following procedure. A calibrated measurement and indication of the applied stress in grams force (gf) shall be provided by equipment capable of measuring stresses up to twice the specified minimum limit value, with an accuracy of ±5 percent or ☐.25 gf, whichever is the greater tolerance.

The apparatus for this test shall consist of suitable equipment for applying the specified stress to the bonds. The purpose of this test is to measure the strength of internal bonds between a semiconductor die and a substrate to which it is attached in a face-bond configuration.
