Vision Technology for Automated Inspection of Hybrid Microelectronics Assemblies
Abstract
The purpose of this review is to determine what is currently considered state-of-the-art for visually inspecting hybrid microelectronic circuits during assembly, with particular emphasis on the use of automation. In order to understand the feasibility and extent to which automated inspection equipment could be implemented, consideration has been given to the following: (1) the hybrid circuit industry in terms of its structure and market significance, (2) the process stages where visual inspection is needed, and (3) the various forms of visual inspection in use and development, including optical microscopy, 2-D, and 3-D machine vision. Keywords: Machine vision, Electronics, Microelectronics, Hybrid circuits, Inspection, Automation.
