Abstract
A system for inspecting leads of an IC using at least one camera is provided, where the system permits configuration of the camera to various positions. The camera provides a digitized frame of the IC leads. The system includes a set of configurable parameters for defining which leads of the IC are imaged in which of the digitized frames. The system also includes a computer for calculating the position of the leads on the IC being inspected in three dimensions, and for comparing these calculated positions to ideal known positions in determining whether the IC leads meet desired manufacturing tolerances.
