Abstract

The cause of defects in the PCB SMT assembly is mostly solder paste deposits. Conventional inspection methods for solder paste deposits suffer from slow speed, low reliability and high cost. Therefore, this paper proposes a method for calculating the height and region of solder paste on PCB using the 3D profiles without measuring the 2D image. The solder paste region is detected by the phase difference in the measurement points and the average phase on the whole surface of PCB. The high reliable height of the solder paste region is computed by the average of the measurement points' phase with repeatability and reliability. The experimental results revealed improvements of 17% in inspection time and 29% repeatability in the height calculation of the solder paste region, resulting in a high speed and less expensive system.

SMT에 의한 PCB 조립에서 발생하는 가장 큰 불량의 원인은 솔더의 도포이다. 기존의 솔더 도포의 검사 방법은 신뢰도가 낮고 검사 속도가 느리며 가격이 높다. 본 논문에서는 2차원 영상을 추가로 획득하지 않고, 3차원 형상정보에서 PCB 위의 솔더영역을 검출하고 높이를 계산하는 방법을 제안한다. 솔더영역은 3차원 형상정보에서 측정점과 PCB 전체의 위상평균의 상대적 위상에 의하여 추출한다. 또 솔더영역의 높이를 신뢰도 높게 측정하기 위하여, 솔더영역의 높이는 반복능과 신뢰도를 적용한 측정점들의 위상평균으로 계산된다. 제안한 방법에 대한 측정실험 결과 검사시간에서 17.5%, 높이계산에서 29%의 반복능 향상을 보였으며, SPI장비 가격 인하 및 검사시간 단축 효과가 있다.
