최근 전자제품의 초소형화에 따라, PCB 기판위의 부품의 집적도를 높이기 위해, 기존의 리드대신 부품 밑면에 볼(ball)이 격자형태로 배열되어 있는 BGA(Ball Grid Array) 형태의 팩키지가 많이 사용되고 있다. 하지만, BGA의 구조상 한번 장착되면 외관검사가 불가능하므로, 장착전 BGA의 검사가 필수적이다. BGA의 검사항목중 가장 중요한 항목인 볼 높이검사를 실시간으로 하기 위해서는 고속 비접촉 3차원 측정기술이 요구된다. 본 논문에서는 일반카메라보다 100배이상 높이 프로파일 취득속도가 빠른 3D smart camera와 레이저 슬릿광(slit ray)을 이용하여 고속으로 BGA 볼의 3D 프로파일을 얻은 후, clipping과 morphological filter를 사용하여 인접한 볼표면에서의 난반사로 인한 에러 데이터를 보정하여 정확한 3D 영상을 취득할 수 있는 시스템을 소개한다.

This paper presents an optical technique for the three-dimensional (3D) shape inspection of micro solder balls used in ball-grid array (BGA) packaging. The proposed technique uses an optical source composed of spatially arranged light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and the results are derived based on the specular reflection characteristics of the micro solder balls for BGA A vision system comprising a camera and LEDs is designed to capture the reflected images of multiple solder balls arranged arbitrarily on a tray and the locations of the LED point-light-source reflections in each ball are determined via image processing, for shape inspection. The proposed methodology aims to determine the presence of defects in 3D BGA shape using the statistical information of the relative positions of multiple BGA balls, which are included in the image. The presence of the BGA balls with large deviations in relative position imply the inconsistencies in their shape. Experiments were conducted to verify that the proposed method could be applied to inspection without sophisticated mechanism and productivity problem.

Fast inspection of solder ball bumps in ball grid array (BGA) is an important issue in the flip chip bonding technology. Particularly, semiconductor industry has required faster and more accurate inspection of micron-size solder bumps in flip chip bonding, as the density of balls increase dramatically. In this paper, we describe an inspection approach of BGA balls by using 5-step ring illumination device and normalized cross-correlation (NCC) method. The images of BGA ball by the illumination device show unique and distinguishable characteristic contours by their 3-D shapes, which are called as "iso-slope contours". Template images of reference ball samples can be produced artificially by the hybrid reflectance model and 3D data of balls. NCC values between test and template samples are very robust and reliable under well-structured condition. The 200 samples on real wafer are tested and show good practical feasibility of the proposed method.

최근 제품의 초소화와 반도체의 고집적화로, 작은 크기로 많은 리드를 제공하기 위해, 부품 밑면에 격자형태로 볼이 배열되어 있는 BGA나 CSP부품들이 최근 많이 이용되고 있다. 하지만, BGA는 한번 PCB에 장착되면, 볼 외관검사가 원천적으로 불가능하므로, 부품을 장착하기 전에 볼 품질의 검사와 부품의 정밀한 위치 및 각도의 측정이 요구된다. 본 논문에서는 BGA부품의 위치 및 각도를 추출하기 위한 방법과 볼을 검사하기 위한 알고리즘을 소개한다.

We presented a BGA(Ball Grid Array) package for RF circuit modules and extracted its electrical parameters. As the frequency of RF system devices increases, the effect of its electrical parasitics in the wireless communication system requires new structure of RF circuit modules because of its needs to be considered of electrical performance for minimization and module mobility. RF circuit modules with BGA packages can provide some advantages such as minimization, shorter circuit routing, and noise improvement by reducing electrical noise affected to analog and digital mixed circuits, etc. We constructed a BGA package of ITS(Intelligent Transportation System) RF module and measured electrical parameters with a TDR(Time Domain Reflectometry) equipment and compared its electrical parasitic parameters with PCB RF circuits. With a BGA substrate of 3${\times}$3 input and output terminals, we have found that self capacitance of BGA solder ball is 68.6fF, and self inductance 146pH, whose values were reduced to 34% and 47% of the value of QFP package structure. S11 parameter measurement with a HP4396B Network Analyzer showed the resonance frequency of 1.55GHz and the loss of 0.26dB. Routing length of the substrate was reduced to 39.8mm. Thus, we may improve electrical performance when we use BGA package structures in the design of RF circuit modules.

BGA 409 chip currently the most as a visual inspection of the exterior inspection is conducted. Human depending on visual inspection of the exterior inspection of the current state of testers, depending on how the test results because the change is difficult to expect reliable results.

Recently, Ball Grid Arrays(BGAs) are getting used more frequently for a package type. The connectors on a BGA consist of a large number of small solder balls in a grid shape on its bottom side. However, since balls of BGAs mounted on PCBs are not visible, inspection before mounting them is indispensable. High speed non-contact 3D measurement technologies are necessary far real-time measurement of ball height, the most important inspection item. In this paper, an accurate 3D data acquisition system for BGAs is proposed that can acquire 3D profile at high speed using a 3D smart camera and laser slit ray projection. Some clipping and morphological filtering operations are employed to remove spiky error data, which occur due to reflections from some ball area to camera direction.

반도체 Ball Grid Array(BGA)에 사용되던 종래의 Solder Ball은 Sn96.3 Ag3.0 Cu0.7의 용융솔더를 이용하여 제작하고 있다. 이는 SMT Reflow공정에서 BGA Ball의 퍼짐현상으로 인해 원래의 Ball Height에 영향을 미쳐 접합불량의 원인이 되고 있다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 Copper Core Ball위에 SnAgCu 삼원합금도금공정을 이용해 문제점을 해결하고자 했으며, 본 실험을 통해 구현한 CCSB를 이용해 SMT Reflow를 진행한 결과 종래의 BGA Ball보다 우수한 효과를 확인할 수 있었다.
