An apparatus for inspecting the outer peripheral surface of a cylindrical object is disclosed, in which the light in slit form is radiated on the surface of an object such as a nuclear fuel pellet at an angle thereto, the light regularly reflected on the surface is detected by a detector, the detected image signal is quantized at threshold values higher and lower than an average level, and the binary signals are used to detect surface losses separately from an unground part and a metal inclusion as a first detection process. The diffused light is radiated onto the surface of the nuclear fuel pellet at an angle thereto, parallel light rays are radiated onto the surface from the direction perpendicular thereto, the light reflected from the surface of the object is detected by a detector from the direction perpendicular to the surface, the detected image signal is quantized at a threshold level lower than an average level of the image signal for the normal surface, and the binary signal is used to detect, as a second detection process, a crack and a pit separately from a chip, said crack, pit or chip included in surface missing defects detected in said first detection process. The surface defects of the nuclear fuel pellet or the like are thus detected by separating them into at least three types including a chip, an unground part and a metal inclusion, and a crack and a pit.

In a method and apparatus for detecting the edge of a fine pattern formed on a specimen such as a fine circuit pattern formed on a semiconductor element or the like, there is prepared a predetermined model waveform based on theoretical secondary electron emission from the edge portion. Secondary electrons emitted from successive scanning points across the pattern edge portion through the irradiation of a scanning electron beam thereonto are detected to produce an actual signal waveform reflecting the secondary electron emission from the pattern edge portion. The actual signal waveform is compared with the model waveform, and one of the scanning points at which the highest coincidence exists between both the actual and model waveforms, is determined as a position of the pattern edge.

A method for inspecting the filled state of a plurality of via-holes which pass through a non-conductive circuit board and are filled with a conductive substance and an apparatus for carrying out the method are disclosed.The surface of the circuit board is illuminated in two directions to generate shadows depending on the concave or convex state of the fillers in a plurality of via-holes. An optical image of the illuminated surface of the circuit board is detected. Each edge of the two shadow areas, which exist in the detected optical image and are generated in one via-hole by light irradiation in two directions, is detected. Whether the filler in this one via-hole is in the concave state or convex state is identified according to the mutual position relationship of the detected edges. The length of each shadow area is detected, and whether the concave state or convex state of the filler is within a predetermined allowance is decided according to the detection results. The area of the image of the filler is detected according to differences between the brightness of the board surface or of the via-hole wall and the brightness of the filler in the via-hole in the detected optical image, and whether the filler is lacking or not is decided according to the detection result.

The present invention relates to a multi-pin chip mounting method and apparatus based on a TAB (Tape Automated Bonding) system in which leads formed on a tape and bumps formed an IC chip are aligned with each other and compress-bonded to each other. An IC chip having bumps formed on a surface thereof and inner leads formed on a carrier tape are disposed opposite to each other at a bonding station. A position of the IC chip on a stage is detected through the inner leads at the bonding station to determine the amount of correction of position of the stage. The inner leads and the IC chip are aligned with each other on the basis of the determined correction amount and are thereafter bonded to each other.
摘要:
In an X-ray tomographic imaging system and method, an object to be inspected is irradiated with X-rays from an X-ray source to obtain an X-ray transmission image of the object. The X-ray transmission image is converted by an X-ray fluorescence image intensifier into a detection image. The intensity of the detection image is also intensified by the X-ray fluorescence image intensifier. A photo-electric converter converts the intensified detection image from the X-ray fluorescence image intensifier into an electrical signal. The object to be inspected is held by an object holder rotatably at a position in proximity to the X-ray source and movably in a direction of the axis of rotation of the object and a direction perpendicular to the rotation axis. The electrical signal from the photo-electric converter is processed to a cross-sectional image.
