PROCESS 1 : PCB AND BUTTON CHECK

PCB check using Automated Optical Inspection (AOI)

The AOI inspection is done by scanning the surface of the PCB board. The AOI
machine fitted with HD color cameras that scans the surface with high magnification
clearly showing on larger monitor screen the details of each section of PCB and
each component of each section. The camera captures the image of the PCB
surface through light source such as fluorescent or LED lights pcb or UV or infra-red
light.
The image is then compared with the pre-programmed data and fed in the memory
of AOI processing system. The final decision to declare the board to be faulty and
hence stop process depends on various algorithms running on AOI machine
depending on pixel counts and NCC values.
The operator of AOI machine also visually checks the images captured by AOI
machine on screen and hence can manually stop process as found necessary.
The AOI can be done before reflow to check for component placement, location and
status for example defects not related to soldering. The post reflow AOI identifies
defects in soldering joints, components and PCB board itself that may have caused
due to thermal dynamics of reflow oven
Button check using function generator

A function generator, which is used for testing the response of circuits to

commonplace input signals, produces various voltage patterns at different
frequencies and amplitudes. You connect the function generator’s electrical leads to
the ground and the signal input terminals to the device under test (DUT).

Function generator by powering it on and configuring the output signal to Button

intended shape. This entails connecting the ground and signal leads to your
oscilloscope to check the controls.
PROCESS 2 & 3 : ID write and link check using configuration software

HyperTerminal was emulator software that helped communicate with a router

or switch and provided a command line interface of a router. This tool designed to
implement routine and wide-scale changes by utilizing device-neutral configuration
templates and allowing to easily define the changes proper ID Write as well as link
check.
PROCESS 4 : Shipping mode & barcode printing

After the manufacturing process is completed, the packaging needs to be filled and
assembled. All good items will be identified by barcode. The function of barcode is to makes
the tracking of parts, equipment and finished products more transparent from the store to
line-side, assembly, production and out to market
