Inspection of solder bump lighted with rays of light intersecting at predetermined angle

摘要

A bump inspecting apparatus lights a spherical solder bump mounted on the surface of a circuit board and has a reinforcing resin applied to the lower half thereof from all circumferential directions with rays of light which intersect at a predetermined angle. An image of the lighted solder bump is captured while the amount of light irradiated upon the central portion of a solder bump is reduced. An object is extracted from image data obtained by the image capture and the area and/or the aspect ratio of the object are confirmed. The quality of the state of the reinforcing resin applied to the solder bump can be inspected.
