Real-Time PCB Inspection System using the Line Scan Camera

Line Scan Camera를 이용한 실시간 PCB 검사 시스템

This paper presents the real-time PCB(Printed circuit board) inspection system that can detect thin open/short error using the line scan camera. After a overall introduction of our system, the outline of our inspection methods are described. The goal of our inspection system is the real time and detailed inspection using the line scan camera. To perform inspection processing in real-time, we utilize double buffering structure. In order to solve the problem of unexpectable pixels of PCB, we propose melting process which eliminates unexpectable pixels of PCB. The design and development of our prototype of PCB ins- pection system is discussed and test results are presented to show the effectiveness of the developed inspection algorithm.
