X-ray System Inspects Hidden Features
October 26, 2006 |Estimated reading time: Less than a minute
SAN CLEMENTE, Calif. YESTech released its YTX-6000 inline automated X-ray inspection (AXI) system, said to fully inspect hidden features such as solder joints or components under radio frequency (RF) shields. Algorithms are used to perform PCB, package, and other electronic assembly inspections.
The system is suitable for complicated boards populated with BGAs, column grid arrays (CGAs), chip-scale packages (CSPs), and other advanced packages. It can detect insufficient solder, voiding, shorts, and opens. Programming typically takes less than 30 minutes using a standard package library. Remote programming and real-time statistical process control (SPC) software are designed to enhance yields.
