Isolation cutting creates electrical separation between circuit elements on a die. A typical application is to create electrically isolated pads on the gold coated surface of a capacitor. Important considerations are the depth of the isolation cut, the width of the cut, and cleanliness. Residual debris in the groove or on the surface can compromise the isolation.
