Hi Richard,
Yes we agree that wire bonding in the electronics industry is an esoteric method, often robotic, of attaching very fine wires (commonly gold) to semiconductor components so that these components can be connected with each other or with package leads.
Likewise, we are sure that your definition of (magnet bonding wire) bonding or amalgamating a magnet wire winding into a solid coil with heat is also correct although we would have thought the name "coil bonding wire" would be much more appropriate.
None the less, we took luisra1's question to be one regarding the very common and basic bonding/ grounding issue with telecommunications electronic and other electrical service equipment. He certainly did not reference semi-conductor leads or magnet wire coils, but he did reference electronic applications.
BICSI, I think you will find, is the standard for bonding and grounding telecommunications type electronic equipment, including the interconnecting cables, in North America. Moreover they have offices in Europe and Brasil.
Because luisra1 asked this question back on February 10th and since he never he never came back to us again we sort of think the thread is pretty well closed.
Kindest regards,
