A power module substrate includes an insulating substrate and a metal plate. The metal plate is joined to the insulating substrate with a brazing material in between. As to surface roughness of a lateral surface of the metal plate in a thickness direction, the surface roughness of at least a corner part farthest from a center of the metal plate in plan view is larger than the surface roughness of plane parts sandwiching the corner part.

Apparatus and method for tool mark free stich bonding. In some embodiments, a method for wire bonding can include feeding a wire through a capillary tip and attaching a first end of the wire to a first location, thereby forming a ball bond. The method can further include moving the capillary tip towards a second location while the wire feeds out of the capillary tip. The method can further include attaching a second end of the wire to the second location while preventing contact between the capillary tip and the second location, thereby forming a stitch bond without a tool mark at the second location.
