  Scheduling of PCB Assembly Using Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm

  By VIJAY PANDEY, Mayank Pawar

  Abstract: This paper deals with the problem of scheduling ‘N’ printed circuit boards (PCBs) on a single machine equipped with an automatic component interchange mechanism. The total number of different components required to process all ‘N’ PCBs is greater than the capacity of the spool. If the essential components are not on the spool, then one or more component switches must take place earlier than the PCB can be processed. The …

  AUTOMATED PRINTED CIRCUIT BOARD (PCB) DEFECT DETECTION USING DIGITAL IMAGE PROCESSING TECHNIQUE

  By M. Solomon, S. E. Eke, E. Ajulo, M. Aibinu, O. C. Ubadike

  Abstract: This work presents a Digital Image Processing (DIP) solution involving the use of image filters and processing functions to analyse the reference and the test images of a Printed Circuit Board (PCB) to yield a resulting image in which open and short circuits have been highlighted. The problem solved was the dependence of other PCB defects detection methods on the absence of deformation in the test image and this was …
