Abstract

An improved circuit board inspection system incorporates a technique that confirms observed electrical connection defects. The improved circuit board inspection system applies a localized investigative routine upon portions of a printed circuit board having one or more identified defects. The technique accounts for the slope of a portion under test of the printed circuit board and provides results that are more accurate from inspection systems that report electrical connection defects.
