Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of ultrasonic scanning and testing technology, and specifically relates to a dual-station ultrasonic scanning and testing device. Background Technology
[0002] An IGBT module includes an aluminum substrate, a copper-clad laminate, chips and electronic components mounted on the copper-clad laminate. The copper-clad laminate and the aluminum substrate are soldered together. After the IGBT module is assembled, the connection surface between the copper-clad laminate and the aluminum substrate needs to be scanned using an ultrasonic microscope (SAT) and imaged in software. The image in the software can clearly identify whether there are voids on the solder surface between the copper-clad laminate and the aluminum substrate.
[0003] An ultrasonic microscope outputs ultrasonic signals. When the signal encounters the interface of different materials, it will be partially reflected and penetrated. The intensity of this echo will vary depending on the density of the material. Based on this characteristic, defects inside the IGBT module can be examined and imaged according to the changes in the received signal.
[0004] With the rapid development of ultrasonic microscopy scanning inspection in the semiconductor industry, ultrasonic imaging inspection of components is becoming more diversified. However, in the existing technology, the scanning inspection process of ultrasonic microscopes is mostly completed manually, which cannot accurately control the scanning position and scanning depth. Furthermore, the single-sided ultrasonic scanning is slow when scanning and inspecting products, reducing work efficiency.

[0036] Furthermore, the first drive module 32 is configured as a linear motor, the mover of the linear motor is connected to the X-axis motion mechanism 2, the mover of the linear motor moves linearly along the stator, thereby driving the X-axis motion mechanism 2 to move the first slider 34 along the first guide rail 33.

[0038] Specifically, second drive modules 22 are installed on the front and rear sides of the crossbeam 21, respectively. Each second drive module 22 is configured as a linear motor. The mover 221 of the linear motor is connected to the fixed plate 41 of the Z-axis motion mechanism 4. The mover 221 of the linear motor moves linearly along the stator 222 to drive the Z-axis motion mechanism to move the second slider 24 along the second guide rail 23, thereby driving the ultrasonic probe 5 to move in the X-direction. It should be noted that the first drive module 32 and the second drive module 22 have the same structure, both being configured as linear motors.
[0039] In some embodiments of this application, two Z-axis motion mechanisms 4 are respectively connected to the corresponding second slider 24, and each second drive module 22 drives the corresponding Z-axis motion mechanism 4 to move along the X direction, so as to link the corresponding second slider 24 to move along the second guide rail 23.
[0040] Specifically, each Z-axis motion mechanism 4 includes a fixed plate 41, a third drive module 42, a third guide rail 43, a third slider 44, and a slide block 46.

[0042] According to some embodiments of this application, such as Figures 6 to 8 As shown, the fine-tuning mechanism 45 includes a first adjustment component 451, a second adjustment component 452, and a fixed base 453. The fixed base 453 is connected to the lower part of the first adjustment component 451. The fixed base 453 is connected to the ultrasonic probe 5 and is used to adjust the moving position of the ultrasonic probe 5 in the Y direction. The second adjustment component 452 is disposed on the first adjustment component 451 and is used to adjust the moving position of the ultrasonic probe 5 in the X direction.

The adjustment screw 4514 is provided with a screw hole, and the stud is provided with a thread. The two are connected and engaged by the thread. By rotating the thread engagement between the adjustment screw 4512 and the stud 4514, the wedge block 4513 is moved relative to the wedge groove 4511, thereby enabling the ultrasonic probe to move in the Y direction (i.e., the front-to-back direction).
[0044] Furthermore, the second adjustment component 452 has the same structure as the first adjustment component 451.

The adjustment screw 4524 is provided with a screw hole, and the stud is provided with a thread. The two are connected and engaged by the thread. By rotating the thread engagement between the adjustment screw 4522 and the stud 4524, the wedge block 4523 is moved relative to the wedge groove 4521, thereby enabling the ultrasonic probe to move in the X direction (i.e., the left and right direction), thereby achieving precise fine adjustment of the position of the ultrasonic probe.
[0045] In a specific embodiment of this application, the moving positions of the two ultrasonic probes can be adjusted synchronously or individually, which can satisfy the requirement that the two ultrasonic probes perform synchronous or asynchronous detection on the workpieces to be tested at the first and second workstations. Furthermore, the two ultrasonic probes are not limited by their moving positions, which allows for simultaneous scanning and detection of two workpieces to be tested, thereby improving detection efficiency.
[0046] In some embodiments of this application, the first and second workstations on the workbench 1 are respectively equipped with water tanks 11. The water tanks 11 are used to contain liquid, and the workpiece to be tested is placed in the liquid. By adjusting the movement of the X-axis motion mechanism, the Y-axis motion mechanism and the Z-axis motion mechanism, the ultrasonic probe is linked to scan and detect the workpiece to be tested in the water tank.
[0047] According to some embodiments of this application, by adjusting the movements of the X-axis motion mechanism, the Y-axis motion mechanism and the Z-axis motion mechanism, the ultrasonic probes of the first station and the second station are linked to perform automated scanning of the workpiece under test, thereby improving the scanning efficiency of the workpiece under test, reducing the risk of misjudgment, and increasing the automation rate and the detection efficiency per unit time.
