Detect smaller features with metrology cameras
As chipmakers continue to move to smaller technology nodes, there are greater demands on process control systems to inspect and measure smaller features and components.
As chipmakers continue to move to smaller technology nodes, there are greater demands on process control systems to inspect and measure smaller features and components.
In semiconductor and electronics manufacturing, there has been a move towards 3D measurements to provide accurate process control of smaller dimensions for higher yield and quality of new packaging technologies. For example in electronics manufacturing a 2D view from the top only allows for detection of defects such as shifts, rotations, and cracks, but not…
In our post about detecting smaller features with metrology cameras, we made the designation between mainstream machine vision cameras and industrial metrology cameras. [See slide 7 in Yole Developpement’s Machine Vision Market report presentation]. Here are some more details on when a metrology camera will provide a performance advantage.
We recently published several articles about how OEM metrology cameras can help you make a performance leap with your process control system. Here are some details about how high resolution cameras are increasing throughput and accuracy for semiconductor and electronics metrology and inspection systems.
The BASTION project was initiated on April 1, 2014 with the main of objective to research and develop new applications for the Broadcast Market, and for the Security and Surveillance Markets. Both will be built on top of the Internet Protocol network, which will allow distributing the video over several physical sites. The cameras will…
As the objects to inspect/measure in high-tech manufacturing become smaller, higher-resolution cameras with better spatial resolution can improve accuracy and precision. This requires a high-quality machine vision camera design, or what is now called a metrology camera. 3D measurements in particular pose increasing demands on camera performance and reliability.

Adimec provides a sneak peak at our new OEM camera for industrial metrology that will be unveiled at the Vision Show 2014. A few hints…high resolution, high speed, CoaXPress, low power.
The great answer is yes! There have been many more CoaXPress frame grabbers made available this year.
The benefits of greater accuracy and throughput from high-resolution cameras can only be realized if the entire image sensor is usable. Metrology cameras are optimized for uniformity and dynamic range among other parameters to provide the most accurate starting image. Metrology cameras are relied on when the pixel information is used as measurement input such as…
