The size of the carrier pad 111 can be adjusted with the circuit bare board 100 to carry various sizes of working boards or base strips or circuit board units.
The probe devices 121 and 122 are used for electrically contacting the pads 110 to electrically connect the antenna 120 of the circuit bare board 100 via the pads 110.

It should be noted that, the signal generator 141 and the analyzer 142 may be multi-channel devices, so that the probe device 121 and the switch 143 do not interfere with each other when the signal generator 141 is electrically connected to the probe device 121 and the switch 143 for detection, and the analyzer 142 is electrically connected to the probe device 122 and the switch 143 for detection, so that the probe device 122 and the switch 143 do not interfere with each other.
The measurement device 14 may further include a frequency converter 144. The frequency converter 144 is electrically connected between the probe device 121 and the signal generator 141, between the probe device 122 and the analyzer 142, and can convert the frequency of the signal generated by the signal generator 141 according to the frequency of the signal transmitted on the circuit board 100.

The image sensor 15 is used for capturing a top view image of the circuit bare board 100, and further, the image sensor 15 can identify the position of the pad 110 according to the top view image. For example, the image sensor 15 may be a video camera or a still camera, and may have an image processor (image processor). The bare circuit board 100 may have a positioning mark (ALIGNMENT MARK, not shown), and the top view image captured by the image sensor 15 has an image of the positioning mark. The image processor of the image sensor 15 can identify the pad 110 according to the image of the positioning mark, so as to obtain the position of the pad 110.
The control device 16 is electrically connected to the signal generator 141, the analyzer 142 and the image sensor 15. The control device 16 is used for controlling the signal generator 141 to generate signals, judging the status of the circuit bare board 100 according to the signals measured by the analyzer 142, and controlling the image sensor 15 to capture the top view image of the circuit bare board 100. The control device 16 may be a computer such as a desktop, industrial or notebook computer. Or the control device 16 may be a microprocessor.
In addition, the detection system 1A may further include a distance meter 17 and a plurality of driving devices 18. The rangefinder 17 is electrically connected to the control device 16 and is used for sensing the height of the pads 110 on the circuit board 100. The distance meter 17 may be a contact type distance meter or a non-contact type distance meter, wherein the non-contact type distance meter may be an infrared laser distance meter for sensing the distance from itself to the pad 110 and transmitting the sensed distance information to the control device 16.
The driving devices 18 are electrically connected to the control device 16 (for simplifying the drawing, the connection between the driving devices 18 and the control device 16 is not shown), and are respectively connected to the probe devices 121 and 122 and capable of moving the probe devices 121 and 122. The driving device 18 is, for example, a stepping motor. The control device 16 can control the driving device 18 according to the top view image captured by the image sensor 15 and the distance sensed by the distance meter 17, so that the driving device 18 moves the probe devices 121 and 122 to the correct positions, and the probe devices 121 and 122 electrically contact the correct pads 110 to detect the antenna 120, thereby realizing automatic detection of the bare circuit board 100.
It should be noted that the carrying table 11, the probe devices 121 and 122, the transceiver antenna 13, the image sensor 15, the distance meter 17 and the driving device 18 may be placed in a non-reflective chamber 19, wherein the non-reflective chamber 19 is a space defined by a wave absorbing material 191. The bare circuit board 100 can be simulated to detect in free space without any substance when detecting without the reflective chamber 19, thereby accurately detecting the performance of the antenna 120.
When inspecting the circuit board 100, the control device 16 can control the driving device 18 according to the top view image captured by the image sensor 15 and the distance sensed by the distance meter 17, so as to move the probe devices 121 and 122 to the correct positions. Next, the control device 16 controls the signal generator 141 to generate the first signal SA1, and the first signal SA1 is up-converted by the frequency converter 144 and then transmitted to the probe device 121, and then transmitted to the antenna 120 through the pad 110.
The antenna 120 receives the first signal SA1 and radiates the first radiation signal SA2, and generates the reflected signal RS, wherein the first signal SA1 and the reflected signal RS are electrical signals, and the electrical signals can only be transmitted through a circuit and cannot be transmitted in a radiation manner, and the first radiation signal SA2 is transmitted in a radiation manner. The transceiver antenna 13 receives the first radiation signal SA2 and outputs a first test signal SA3, wherein the first test signal SA3 is also an electrical signal and can only be transmitted through a circuit. The first test signal SA3 is transmitted from the transceiver antenna 13 to the switch 143, wherein the switch 143 is switched to electrically connect the transceiver antenna 13 to the analyzer 142. The first test signal SA3 is switched and transmitted to the frequency converter 144 via the switch 143, and then is down-converted and transmitted to the analyzer 142.
The analyzer 142 receives the first test signal SA3 and measures. The analyzer 142 may be a vector signal analyzer to measure a performance parameter of the transmission path, such as an error vector magnitude (Error Vector Magnitude, EVM). In addition, the reflected signal RS is sent back to the frequency converter 144 via the probe apparatus 122 for down-conversion and then sent to the analyzer 142. Thus, the return loss (return loss) of the antenna 120 may be measured by using a vector network analyzer. The impedance of the antenna 120 may be measured by using a time domain reflectometer.
Fig. 2 is a schematic diagram of the inspection system 1A of fig. 1 inspecting the receiving path of the wiring bare board 100. Referring to fig. 1, when the analyzer 142 receives the first test signal SA3, the analyzer records the power of the first test signal SA3 as a power value, and transmits the power value to the signal generator 141. Referring to fig. 2, the signal generator 141 generates a second signal SB1, wherein the signal generator 141 generates the second signal SB1 according to the power value, such that the power of the second signal SB1 is the same as the power value. The second signal SB1 is up-converted by the frequency converter 144 and then transmitted to the switch 143, wherein the switch 143 is switched to electrically connect the signal generator 141 to the transceiver antenna 13.
The second signal SB1 is switched and transferred to the transmitting/receiving antenna 13 via the switch 143. The transceiver antenna 13 receives the second signal SB1 and radiates the second radiation signal SB2, wherein the second signal SB1 is an electrical signal and can only be transmitted through a line, and the second radiation signal SB2 is transmitted in a radiation manner. The antenna 120 receives the second radiation signal SB2 and outputs a second test signal SB3, wherein the second test signal SB3 is also an electrical signal.
The second test signal SB3 outputted from the antenna 120 is transmitted to the probe device 122 via the pad 110 and to the frequency converter 144. The second test signal SB3 is down-converted by the frequency converter 144 and then transmitted to the analyzer 142. Analyzer 142 receives and measures second test signal SB3, wherein analyzer 142 may be a vector signal analyzer to measure a performance parameter of the receive path or/and the full path, such as an error vector magnitude.
In addition, the order of measuring the performance parameters of the transmission path and the receiving path of the circuit bare board 100 may be changed, for example, the performance parameters of the receiving path of the circuit bare board 100 are measured first, and then the performance parameters of the transmission path and/or the complete path of the circuit bare board 100 are measured, without limitation. When the performance parameters of the receiving path of the circuit board 100 are measured, the signal generator 141 generates the second signal SB1 before generating the first signal SA1. When the analyzer 142 receives the second test signal SB3, it records the power of the second test signal SB3 as a power value, and transmits the power value to the signal generator 141. Next, the signal generator 141 generates the first signal SA1 according to the power value, so that the power of the first signal SA1 is the same as the power value.
It should be further noted that the switch 143 may be manually switched by a user or automatically switched by loading program codes, so that the transceiver antenna 13 is electrically connected to the signal generator 141 or the analyzer 142. When the performance parameter of the transmission path of the circuit board 100 is measured, the switch 143 is switched to electrically connect the transceiver antenna 13 to the analyzer 142, and when the performance parameter of the reception path of the circuit board 100 is measured, the switch 143 is switched to electrically connect the signal generator 141 to the transceiver antenna 13.
For example, when the switch 143 is automatically set and the transmission path of the circuit board 100 is measured, the switch 143 is set to switch the transceiver antenna 13 to be electrically connected to the analyzer 142, and when the analyzer 142 receives the first test signal SA3 or the signal generator 141 generates the second signal SB1, the switch 143 is triggered to switch the signal generator 141 to be electrically connected to the transceiver antenna 13.
On the other hand, when the switch 143 is set for automatic switching and the receiving path of the bare circuit board 100 is measured first, the switch 143 is set to switch so that the signal generator 141 is electrically connected to the transceiver antenna 13, and when the analyzer 142 receives the second test signal SB3 or the signal generator 141 is to generate the first signal SA1, it is set to trigger the switch 143 to switch to a condition that the transceiver antenna 13 is electrically connected to the analyzer 142.
Since the circuit board 100 is a circuit substrate that is not equipped with any active device, the current passing through the circuit board 100 does not pass through any active device, i.e., the first signal SA1, the first test signal SA3, the second signal SB1, and the second test signal SB3, before the circuit board 100 is equipped with any active device. Therefore, the control device 16 can directly know the electrical quality of the circuit bare board 100 according to the performance parameters of the transmission path, the receiving path and the complete path measured by the analyzer 142, so as to select the qualified circuit bare board 100.
From this, the inspection system 1A can directly inspect the circuit bare board 100 without using the conventional inspection chip, so as to pick out the qualified circuit bare board 100 and eliminate the unqualified circuit bare board 100. Compared with the existing detection method using the chip for detection, the detection system 1A of the present embodiment can eliminate the additional time and cost for installing the chip for detection, thereby having the advantages of reducing the cost and shortening the detection time.
Further, the performance parameters of the circuit board 100 measured by the inspection system 1A may be collected and analyzed by a communication system (not shown), such as a semiconductor device communication standard/generic device model (SEMI Equipment Communication Standard/Generic Equipment Model, SECS/GEM), to analyze the portion of the circuit board 100 to be modified.
Fig. 3 is a schematic diagram of a detecting system 1B detecting a circuit bare board 100 according to another embodiment of the present utility model, and fig. 4 is a schematic diagram of a detecting system 1B detecting a receiving path of the circuit bare board 100 of fig. 3. Referring to fig. 3 and 4, the detection system 1B of fig. 3 is similar to the detection system 1A of fig. 1, wherein elements having the same or similar functions are denoted by the same reference numerals.
The detection system 1B of fig. 3 is different from the detection system 1A of fig. 1 in that the measuring device 14 of the detection system 1B of fig. 3 further comprises a second switch 145. The second switch 145 includes a first end 145a, a second end 145b, a third end 145c and a fourth end 145d, wherein the first end 145a is electrically connected to the probe device 121, the second end 145b is electrically connected to the probe device 122, the third end 145c is electrically connected to the signal generator 141 through the frequency converter 144, and the fourth end 145d is electrically connected to the analyzer 142 through the frequency converter 144. The second switch 145 is configured to switch between the first end 145a and the third end 145c, or/and the second end 145b and the fourth end 145d, so that the probe device 121 is electrically connected to the signal generator 141, or/and the probe device 122 is electrically connected to the analyzer 142.
The inspection system 1B is similar to the inspection method of the inspection system 1A, and the control device 16 controls the signal generator 141 to generate the first signal SA1 when inspecting the performance parameter of the transmission path of the wiring bare board 100. The first signal SA1 is up-converted by the frequency converter 144 and then transmitted to the second switch 145, wherein the second switch 145 is switched to electrically connect the signal generator 141 to the probe apparatus 121. The first signal SA1 is transmitted to the probe device 121 via the second switch 145 and is transmitted to the antenna 120 via the pad 110.
The antenna 120 receives the first signal SA1 and radiates the first radiation signal SA2, and generates a reflected signal RS. The transceiver antenna 13 receives the first radiation signal SA2 and outputs a first test signal SA3. The first test signal SA3 is transmitted from the transceiver antenna 13 to the switch 143, and is switched by the switch 143 to be transmitted to the frequency converter 144 for down-conversion and then transmitted to the analyzer 142. The analyzer 142 receives the first test signal SA3 and measures, and the analyzer 142 may be a vector signal analyzer to measure a performance parameter of the transmission path of the circuit board 100, such as an error vector magnitude.
The reflected signal RS is transmitted back to the probe device 122 through the pad 110, is transmitted to the second switch 145 through the probe device 122, is transmitted to the frequency converter 144 through the second switch 145, and is down-converted to the analyzer 142. The return loss and impedance of the antenna 120 can be known by measuring the reflected signal RS.
When detecting the performance parameters of the receiving path or/and the complete path of the circuit board 100, the analyzer 142 receives the first test signal SA3 and records the power of the first test signal SA3 as a power value, and transmits the power value to the signal generator 141. The signal generator 141 may then generate the second signal SB1 according to the power value. The second signal SB1 is up-converted by the frequency converter 144, then transmitted to the switch 143, and switched by the switch 143 to be transmitted to the transceiver antenna 13. The transceiver antenna 13 receives the second signal SB1 and radiates the second radiation signal SB2, and the antenna 120 receives the second radiation signal SB2 and outputs the second test signal SB3.
The second test signal SB3 outputted from the antenna 120 is transmitted to the probe device 122 via the pad 110 and is transmitted to the second switch 145, wherein the second switch 145 is switched to electrically connect the probe device 122 to the analyzer 142. The second test signal SB3 is transmitted to the analyzer 142 via the second switch 145 after being down-converted by the frequency converter 144. The analyzer 142 receives the second test signal SB3 and measures, and the analyzer 142 may be a vector signal analyzer to measure a performance parameter of the received/full path, such as an error vector magnitude.
It should be noted that the switch 143 and the second switch 145 may be combined into the same apparatus, and are not limited thereto. When the same switcher detects, the detection process is not influenced and interfered by the respective switching of the multiple channels.
In summary, the inspection systems 1A and 1B disclosed in the above embodiments can directly use the measuring device 14 to electrically connect the circuit bare board 100 via the probe devices 121 and 122 to inspect the circuit bare board 100 under the condition that no chip for inspection is used, thereby directly obtaining the performance parameters of the circuit bare board 100 and selecting the qualified circuit bare board 100.
In addition, by using the switch 143 and the second switch 145 to switch the electrical connection relationship among the signal generator 141, the analyzer 142, the transceiver antenna 13 and the probe devices 121 and 122 for measurement, the amount of wiring or equipment required for installing the detection systems 1A and 1B can be reduced.
Although the present utility model has been described with reference to the above embodiments, it should be understood that the utility model is not limited thereto, but rather is capable of modification and variation without departing from the spirit and scope of the present utility model.
