- LEDs 15 are typically used in printed circuit boards 90 and require verification of their operation in a different manner than the traditional manner of verification of the placement and operation of integrated circuits within printed circuit board 90. LEDs 15 are available in clear/white and several common colors such as red, green and blue. Beyond mere verification of the operation of LED 15, it is also preferable, and an object of this invention, to confirm that LED 15 of the intended color is in the desired position in printed circuit board 90.
- the apparatus according to a preferred embodiment of this invention includes sensor 10.
- sensor 10 comprises an assembly of components that may be used in connection with test systems and test fixtures for quickly and accurately verifying the color of LED 15.
- Sensor 10 otherwise known as a FINNTM sensor, is preferably positioned in physical proximity to LED 15 to be tested. According to one preferred embodiment of this invention, and as shown in Fig.
- sensor 10 preferably comprises photosensitive semiconductor 20.
- Photosensitive semiconductor 20 may comprise an Si photodiode such as those manufactured by Hamamatsu with part numbers S6428, S6429 and S6430.
- Sensor 10 additionally includes optical filter 30 connected with respect to the photosensitive semiconductor which permits only light from a target wavelength of the color to be detected to pass.
- Table 1 indicates a nominal wavelength emitted by several colors of standard LEDs 15 in addition to a peak sensitivity of sensor 10 according to a preferred embodiment of this invention.
- the peak sensitivity of sensor 10 is the wavelength at which sensor 10 generates the most current per light striking an active region of sensor 10.
- the 50% bandwidth entry is similar to a 3 dB point of an electronic filter. So light of a wavelength on the edge of the 50% bandwidth would produce half the current of the same amount of light at the peak sensitivity wavelength.
- two probes 40 are connected with respect to photosensitive semiconductor 20 and optical filter 30 for passing current from photosensitive semiconductor 20.
- Probes 40 are preferably slotted at one end to facilitate connection with respect to photosensitive semiconductor 20.
- probes 40 are metal probes such as part number PRP 2562X manufactured by QA Technology Company, Inc.
- probes 40 each include a 90° bend.
- probes 40 may be pre-formed into other configurations or may be bendable to permit forming into suitable configurations.
- Bias resistor 50 is preferably connected across probes 40 to provide an output voltage corresponding to an intensity of light of the target wavelength. Bias resistor 50 preferably creates the output voltage based upon the current generated by the target wavelength of light through sensor 10. Bias resistor 50 is preferably selected to create a voltage within a predetermined range depending upon the color to be verified. As a result of the described construction, sensor 10 provides an output voltage corresponding to a target wavelength corresponding to an appropriate color of LED 15 and blocks light outside of the target wavelength. According to a preferred embodiment of this invention, test system 60 is in communication with sensor 10 for converting the output voltage into pass/fail signal 65.
- Test system 60 may comprise an in-circuit tester such as those manufactured by Agilent, Genrad or Teradyne in combination with software suitable to translate the output of sensor 10 into pass/fail signal 65.
- Test system 60 may additionally include verification module 70 for determining whether the output voltage exceeds a predetermined minimum test voltage for the intensity of light of the target wavelength.
- test system 60 may further include warning signal 75 to indicate excessive ambient light between sensor 10 and LED 15. Warning signal 75 is useful for indicating whether the test conditions are optimized and insulated from contamination caused by excess ambient light.
- a method for verifying a color of LED 15 in printed circuit board 90 includes first positioning one or more sensors 10 on fixture board 80. Printed circuit board 90 is then preferably positioned within test fixture 80 so that sensor 10 is positioned directly adjacent LED 15.
- test fixture 80 includes bed 85 for accepting printed circuit board 90 and one or more sensors 10.
- Printed circuit board 90 is preferably positioned within bed 85 of test fixture 80.
- Test fixture 80 may further comprise power source 95 for turning on one or more LEDs 15.
- test fixture 80 includes baffles (not shown) or is otherwise configured, such as in a clamshell configuration, to block at least a portion of ambient light to printed circuit board 90.
- LED 15 is next turned on by powering up the entire printed circuit board 90 or isolating only LEDs 15 with power source 95. Once powered up, LED 15 is illuminated thus exposing sensor 10 to the color of LED 15.
- test system 60 is preferably in communication with sensor 10 and/or test fixture 80 and converts the output voltage generated by sensor 10 to pass/fail signal 65.
- the output voltage is sent from sensor 10 to test system 60 based upon the intensity of light of the target wavelength.
- test system 60 generates pass/fail signal 65 to indicate whether the correct LEDs 15 are in position and/or in operation.
- Such an analysis may include measuring a voltage across bias resistor 50 and comparing the voltage to predicted values for the color to be verified.
- Preferably such analysis is imbedded in test system 60 as configurable software.
- the software and/or test system 60 may be configured to include the steps of: (1) measuring a V on across sensor 10 when LED 15 is on; (2) measuring a N off across sensor 10 when LED 15 is off; (3) subtracting the V off from the V on to determine a nominal voltage; and (4) comparing the nominal voltage with a predetermined minimum voltage for the color to be verified.
- the following table provides actual values for measuring and verifying the color of particular LEDs 15.
- a red LED may produce enough light on the active region of the red sensor for a voltage of 450 mV to be developed across sensor 10.
- a yellow LED with the same light intensity might produce about 120 mV and a green or blue LED even less. So setting the test limit at 300 mV would guarantee a red LED with a minimum working intensity is installed in printed circuit board 90, also called a circuit card assembly.
- a green LED is used to verify that LED 15 is not red or blue.
- all variables must be optimized and fault insertion must be used to set the limits. Variations from lot to lot of LEDs 15 may require additional fine tuning of test system 60.
- a clear sensor may be used to detect both elements of a bi-color LED turning on. However, preferably one color is selected to detect fully and measuring a reduced signal for the other color.
- LEDs 15 are positioned so that a light emitting surface is either positioned on an edge of printed circuit board 90 and thus perpendicular to surface of printed circuit board 90, as shown in Figs. 1-3, or positioned in an interior area of printed circuit board 90 and thus parallel to surface of printed circuit board 90, as shown in Figs. 4 and 5.
- sensor 10 when a light emitting surface of LED 15 is perpendicular to printed circuit board 90, sensor 10 is positioned at least approximately 0.10" away from the light emitting surface and up to approximately 0.20" or more away from the light emitting surface of LED 15. Factors such as the strength of the light source, the intensity of the light source and the amount of ambient light may result in variations of a preferred position of sensor 10 relative to LED 15.
- a center of an active region of sensor 10, likely a center of optical filter 30, is preferably aligned with a center of a lens of LED 15.
- probes 40 are preferably not in a compression when positioning sensor 10 with respect to test fixture 80.
- sensor 10 when the light emitting surface of LED 15 is parallel to printed circuit board 90, sensor 10 is likewise positioned at least approximately 0.10" away from the light emitting surface of LED 15 and up to approximately 0.20" or more away from the light emitting surface of LED 15. Like in a parallel configuration, factors such as the strength of the light source, the intensity of the light source and the amount of ambient light may result in variations of a preferred position of sensor 10 relative to LED 15. Probes 40 according to this preferred embodiment are preferably configured so that an approximately 0.250" stroke probe sits above the board approximately 0.15" when engaged.
