Has anyone had any success in finding open circuits (i.e. ball present but not soldered to PCB) under collapsible BGA's using an Agilent HP5DX x-ray tester and the BGA2 algorithm? Can anyone recommend an elongated pad design which produces the neces

NEITHER AXI nor AOI are "stable" or "repeatable." If your false call rate is zero, then you've basically rendered the machine an expensive conveyor (ie it's passing everything 'cause you've opened the limits too much). You can *try* to do a Cpk or

5DX is good. Here some information for the Agilent 5DX machine -Automated X-ray Inspection- http://www.home.agilent.com/USeng/nav/-536900435.0/pc.html

AOI (automatic optical inspection) is not capable to detect hidden joints (BGA, J-leads,...) defects. For that you will need X-Ray (AXI = Automated X-ray Inspection). Look @ http://www.agilent.com, they have both systems. It is usual that PWB manufac

If your goal is to inspect solder joints then X-ray is the way to go. AOI is not effective at solder joint and is best at component inspection. Using an AXI or AOI for solder joint inspection requires a lot of engineering time. Don't know any good si

Hi all, my site using x-ray machine "Agilent 5DX Series 5". The tester will hang around 10- 15 min during perform automatic startup at level "Delta Z". My site, we already change Front & Rear laser, burn galil, performed manual startup, total shutdow

Agilent has a great article on determining whether automated optical inspection (AOI) or automated x-ray inspection (AXI) is right for you. It's a PDF file that can found here: http://www.ate.agilent.com/EMT/LIBRARY/X-RAY/DOCS/59883661en.pdf To sum

I think alot of those X-Ray machines out there "over-emphasize" BGA analysis. It'll measure every aspect of the BGA, like size of voids, percent voids, how many voids, cumulative sum of the voids, shape and geometry of voids, statistical distributio

For Automated x-ray inpsection system comes in 2D and 3D. 2D also know as the transmission xray inspection where xray are generated from a fixed point source. On double side board, this does not work that well. That where 3D Automated x-ray inpsectio

We looked at the 5DX as well, but it was way too cost prohibitive at the time and ended up purchasing the Yestech stand alone x-ray system. At the time Yestech did not have a comparable system to the 5DX, but I understand they do now. With Agilent
