Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method and an apparatus for measuring respective positions of a set of N contact elements of an electronic component, whereby a first and a second image of the contact elements are recorded.
- the first image being obtained by light, perpendicularly reflected on the contact elements, whereas the second image is obtained by light which is reflected over a triangulation angle with respect to the contact elements.
- Such a method and such a device are known from
- the first image is recorded by a first camera
- the second image is recorded by a second camera.
- the positions of the contact elements are then determined based on the data present in the first and second image.
- a drawback of the known method and device is that two individual cameras are required. The first camera records the first image, whereas the second records the second image. Consequently two framegabber channels are required to process the image data. Moreover, the two cameras have to be housed in the same apparatus thus requiring a large volume.
- a method or device according to the present invention is therefor characterised in that it comprises :
- first and a second light path which end both in the image plane of a same camera
- two different images can be formed of the same contact elements while using a single camera.
- the selective opening of the first and second path enables that, the light travelling along the first path, will be blocked when the second path is open and vice versa. In such a manner, the second image obtained by light of the second path will not be affected by the light travelling along the first path.
- two different images are obtained which enable to determine the positions of the contact elements while using a single camera.
- a first preferred embodiment of a device according to the invention is characterised in that it comprises a second light source provided for producing said second light beam, said second light beam being oriented in such a manner that the output second light beam is incident on said measurement plane over an angle ⁇ , wherein 20° ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ 80°.
- a second light source enables to make a clear distinction between the light in the different light paths.
- a second preferred embodiment of an apparatus according to the invention is characterised in that said first and second light source are provided for producing light in non-overlapping wavelength ranges.
- the use of non-overlapping wavelength ranges enables to even more distinguish the light travelling along the first and second light path since consequently light of different wavelength ranges travels along those paths. The light producing the first and second image will thus not interfere.
- selection means provided for selectively opening either said first or said second path are formed by a dichroic mirror.
- a dichroic mirror in combination with light of different wavelength ranges offers the advantage that for one wavelength range the dichroic mirror is reflective whereas transparent for the other wavelength range.
- a third preferred embodiment of an apparatus according to the invention is characterised in that at least one lateral mirror is set up over a viewing angle ⁇ adjacent the measurement plane, said camera having a resolution of nK x mK where 1 ⁇ n ⁇ 2 and 1 ⁇ m ⁇ 2 and being provided for recording light reflected by said at least one mirror.
- This embodiment requires a less critical set up of mirrors to construct a first and second light path.
- figure 1 shows schematically an overall view of a first embodiment of an apparatus according to the present invention
- figure 2 shows the first and second light path such as formed in the apparatus as shown in figure 1
- figure 3 shows an example of a first and second image recorded by the apparatus shown in figure 1
- figure 4 shows an example of a first and second image recorded by the apparatus shown in figure 1 and using an anamorphotic optical system
- figure 5 shows schematically an overall view of a second embodiment of an apparatus according to the present invention
- figure 6 illustrates the required depth-of-view when using the method of the present invention
- figure 7 shows schematically the principle of a third embodiment of an apparatus according to the present invention
- figure 8 shows the different image set ups obtained by the apparatus shown in figure 5
- figure 9 shows an example of images recorded by the apparatus shown in figure 8.
- the method according to the invention is designed for the automatic computation of the coplanarity of contact elements of electronic components such as BGA (Ball Grid Array)/CSP (Chip Scale Packaging) and flip-chips devices.
- Other computation may be performed by the invention, including calculation of two or three dimensional size of elements, the colour and shape of elements and detection of missing or misplaced elements.
- the electronic component 10 Is placed in a measurement plane 7, in such a manner that its N contact elements are illuminated by a first light source 3.
- the latter produces a homogeneous illumination of the contact elements preferably at a low incident angle, which is at the most 20°.
- the first light source comprises a high-quality ring-light illumination source.
- Such a source is built up of a series of LED's which are disposed in a ring, square, hexagonal or other substantially planar geometrical arrangement situated under the plane in which the contact elements are placed. It is important that a substantially homogeneous light field is created which covers the volume in which the contact elements of the component are located.
- the light source 3 illuminates the surface on which the contact elements are placed from the peripheral of the surface, the sides of the contact elements, generally formed by balls, are illuminated.
- the light produced by the source 3 is reflected according to a first viewing angle substantially perpendicular with respect to the measurement plane 7 in which the electronic component 10 is situated. That reflected light is incident on a first mirror 1 , which is inclined over an angle ⁇ defined in function of the other optical elements forming the apparatus 8.
- a second illumination source 4 for example formed by a series of LED's is mounted under the measurement plane 7. The light produced by that second illumination source is incident over an angle on the measurement plane.
- the light reflected by the second mirror 5 is oriented towards a third mirror 6 inclined over an angle ⁇ .
- a dichroic mirror 2 inclined over an angle ⁇ reflects the light reflected by the first mirror 1 into the objective of a single camera 9 placed under the first mirror 1 and the dichroic mirror 2.
- the latter is transparent for the light reflected by the third mirror 6 in such a manner that the latter light also reaches the single camera 9.
- the camera is preferably a CCD or CMOS camera.
- the set up of the illumination sources and the mirrors enables the formation of a first and a second light path as shown also in figure 2.
- the first light path p1 is created by the first light beam, which is produced by the first illumination source 3 and the reflection of that light in a substantially perpendicular direction with respect to the measurement plane in which the electronic component 10 is set up.
- the first path p1 has an initial or first section extending between the measurement plane and the first mirror 1.
- a second section extends between the first mirror 1 and the dichroic mirror 2 and is obtained by the light reflected by the first mirror.
- a final section of the first path extends between the dichroic mirror 2 and the image plane of the camera 9. The final section is obtained by light reflected towards the camera and incident on the dichroic mirror.
- the second light path p2 is created by the second light beam which is produced by the second illumination source 4 incident over an angle ⁇ , 20° ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ 80° on the measurement plane.
- the initial or first section of the second light path p2 extends in the direction of a second viewing angle ⁇ , between the measurement plane and the second mirror 5.
- the angle ⁇ upon which the second mirror is inclined is i.a. determined by the angle and the position of the camera. In the present example 2° ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ 15°.
- a second section of the second light path is obtained by the light reflected by the second mirror 5 and oriented towards the third mirror 6.
- the orientation of the third mirror is dependent on the one of the second mirror 5 and the camera 9. In the present example 5° ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ 35°.
- a final section of the second light path extends between the third mirror and the image plane of camera 9. That final section crosses the dichroic mirror and is obtained by light reflected by the third mirror.
- the dichroic mirror enables the multiplexing of the images obtained by the light travelling on the one hand along the first path and on the other hand along the second path.
- a dichroic mirror has the properties that for a first wavelength range it acts as a mirror by reflecting the light, whereas for a second non-overlapping wavelength range the mirror is transparent i.e. acts as a simple glass plate.
- the dichroic mirror is therefor a wavelength-multiplexer.
- wavelength ranges For example red light in the range of 600 nm to 720 nm for the first source and blue light in the range of 420 nm to 550 nm for the second source.
- the red light then travels along the first light path p1 and the dichroic mirror 4 acts as a mirror for red light, i.e. reflects the red towards the camera.
- the blue light travels along the second path.
- the dichroic mirror 2 is transparent for blue light, the blue light crosses the dichroic mirror in order to reach camera 9.
- the first and second light source are not switched on together but alternately.
- blue light would reach the first mirror 1 or red light the third mirror 6, this scattered light would not affect the formation of the first and second image by the camera.
- blue light incident on the first mirror and reflected towards the dichroic mirror will cross the latter as the dichroic mirror is transparent for blue light. Red light reaching the third mirror and thus incident on the dichroic mirror in such a manner will be reflected by the latter.
- Figure 3 shows on the left side a first image obtained by light travelling along the first path and on the right side a second image obtained by light travelling along the second path.
- the first image has the typical doughnut shape, obtained by perpendicular reflection on the contact elements.
- the second image shows the typical moon shapes due to the lateral illumination over a triangulation angle.
- Another constraint that must be satisfied by using a single camera is that for both views the average optical length (measured along a central axis of the light path) i.e. the distance between the object and the image plane of the camera, must be substantially the same in order to be able to generate a sharp image with only a single objective . That condition is satisfied by a proper set up of the different mirrors 1, 2, 5 and 6 and their correct inclination in such a manner that the first and second light path have approximately a same optical length.
- an object square of side E is seen as a trapezoid, roughly of width E and height E* cos( ⁇ ). Therefor, not the entire area of the image field is used. The resolution and therefor accuracy of the method could be improved by expanding the height of this image, without affecting the width.
- An optical system with magnifications different for the two orthogonal directions is called an anamorphotic optical system. This can be generated within the second viewing path by means of employing two cylindrical mirrors for the second and third mirrors 5 and 6, replacing the two planar mirrors. The result is shown in figure 4.
- two additional cylindrical lenses could be used within the second path. These two mirrors or two lenses form a beam expander in one direction and have no optical action in the other direction. None of these elements may be part of the first path, the straight viewing path, of course, since here the object aspect ratio should remain unaffected.
- the set up such as illustrated in the figures 1 and 2 only shows an example of a possible embodiment of an apparatus according to the present invention.
- Alternative embodiments could be used for realising the first and second light path. So, for example it is not absolutely necessary that the first path has an initial section extending perpendicularly to the measurement plane, i.e. the first viewing angle being equal to 90°. Other values for the first and second viewing angle are also admitted.
- the set up of the different mirrors has to be adapted to the choice of the first and second viewing angle and the position of the single camera.
- the first or second light path has different sections.
- a different alignment of the camera 9 and/or the component 10 or first light source 3 could enable a construction of the first light beam going directly, without using a first mirror 1 , towards the image plane of the camera.
- more or less mirrors than the mirrors 1 , 5 and 6 could be used to build up the light paths.
- two light beams are created enabling to form the first and second light path leaving the measurement plane along a first and second viewing angle respectively, where the first and second viewing angle have different values.
- Each of the light beams have to create each time an image on the image plane of a single camera.
- a semi-transparent mirror could also be used.
- filters or shutters have however to be mounted in the first and second light path. Those filters or shutters should obstruct one light path when the other is open and vice versa. So, for example, when the first light path is open, the shutter has to close the second path. As some light intensity is lost by using semi-transparent mirrors, care should be taken that enough light intensity is produced by the sources 3 and 4.
- filters 13 and 14 When filters 13 and 14 are used such as in the embodiment shown in figure 5, those filters have of course to be transparent for the wavelength range assigned to the light path in which they are mounted and filter out other wavelengths. In such a manner light from one light path can not interfere with light of the other path and disturb the respective images to be taken.
- shutters When using shutters their opening has to be synchronised with the light sources. So, when the first light source 3 is emitting light, shutter 13 has to be open while the second light source should preferably be switched off and shutter 14 has to be closed. The opposite situation occurs when the second light source 4 emits i.e. shutter 13 is closed and shutter 14 is open.
- the shutters are for example formed by usual diaphragms which are electrically operable or by an LCD.
- the wavelength of the light emitted by both light sources could be the same.
- a dichroic mirror it is necessary that the wavelength ranges of both light sources are different and non-overlapping. The first and the second image have to be made subsequently in order to not disturb each other.
- FIG 7 Another embodiment of the single-camera solution is shown in figure 7 and does not use wavelength multiplex but spatial composition.
- at least one lateral mirror 20 is placed adjacent to the object 10.
- the mirror makes an angle ⁇ with the measurement plane. That angle is situated between 20° and 80°.
- two mirrors 20 and 21, one on the east side and the other on the west side are placed.
- two further mirrors one on the north side and the other on the south side.
- a direct view, forming the first image is formed in the middle of the image plane, as shown in figure 8, and four further around the direct view, forming the second image.
- the single camera and lens view the direct view and the side views next to each other.
- Figure 9 shows the images obtained with a set up having a single mirror on the east side.
- a 1 K x 1 K pixel camera is used in the embodiments of figure 1 or 5
- a 1 K x 1 ,5 K pixel camera would be preferred for a set up with one lateral mirror in order to obtain the same resolution.
- the depth-of-field requirement is the same as described herebefore.
- a 1 K x 2 K pixel camera is preferred and a 2 K x 2 K pixel camera is preferred when four mirrors are used in order to obtain a same resolution.
- an nK x mK resolution is preferred with 1 ⁇ n ⁇ 2 and 1 ⁇ m ⁇ 2.
- the resolution of the camera should in any way be adapted to record both images simultaneously.
- these multiple side view embodiments may also be executed with a camera of smaller pixel number, using again a wavelength multiplex for the various views.
- Those experienced in the optical art will have no difficulty in devising a multitude of possible set ups, based on the methods outlined above.
- the determination of the position of the contact elements is determined on the basis of the recorded images in an analogous manner as described in PCT/BEOO/00020 which is hereby incorporated by reference.
