A new generation of AI-driven inspection systems is pushing electronics manufacturing closer to zero-defect production, with ...

The use of AOI (automated optical inspection) systems with dual-lane configurations is increasing in high-speed PCB (printed-circuit board) assembly, due to the systems’ ability to double capacity in ...

As loss of access grows, it�s time to look into viable alternatives to AOI. Rapid changes in printed circuit board (PCB) assemblies will force manufacturers to modify their test and inspection ...

What methods can be applied to verify PCB functionality and safety? Which are suitable for mass production and for prototypes? What parameters are checked in each test? How to check a PCB without ...

Researchers from the Florida Institute for Cybersecurity (FICS) at the University of Florida published this technical paper titled “FICS PCB X-ray: A dataset for automated printed circuit board ...

As PCB hybrid manufacturing makes greater inroads with microelectronics manufacturing, new inspection tools are coming to the fore. In our industry, microelectronics manufacturing is increasingly ...

Surface-mount technology (SMT) is evolving far beyond its roots as a way of assembling packaged chips onto printed circuit boards without through-holes. It is now moving inside packages that will ...
