Process for three dimensional inspection of electronic components

摘要

A three dimensional inspection process for ball array devices. The ball array device is positioned in a fixed optical system. The ball array device is illuminated and a first image of the ball array device is taken with a first camera disposed in a fixed focus position relative to the ball array device to obtain a characteristic circular doughnut shape image from a ball. A second image of the ball array device is taken with a second camera disposed in a fixed focus position relative to the ball array device to obtain a top surface image of the ball. The first image and the second image are processed using a triangulation method to calculate a three dimensional position of the ball with reference to a pre-calculated calibration plane.
