Abstract: In order to inspect a substrate, an image information of a substrate before applying solder is displayed. Then, at least one inspection region on the substrate is image-captured to obtain an image of the inspection region that is image-captured. Then, image information that is to be displayed is renewed and the renewed image information is displayed. And, in order to inspect a foreign substance, obtained image of the inspection region is compared with a reference image of the substrate. Therefore, an operator can easily catch a region corresponding to a specific region of the image that is displayed, and easily detect a foreign substance on the substrate.

Abstract: The invention provides a semiconductor device including a capacitor capable of securing capacity and exhibiting improved reliability and a semiconductor package comprising the same. The semiconductor device includes: a substrate having a cell block; a plurality of capacitors, which are in the cell block of the substrate and have first electrodes; and a support pattern, which contacts sidewalls of the first electrodes of the plurality of capacitors and supports the plurality of capacitors, wherein the support pattern includes an upper support pattern including: a first upper pattern having a plate-like structure connected as a whole in the cell block; and a second upper pattern, which contacts a bottom surface of the first upper pattern and has a top surface having a smaller area than the bottom surface of the first upper pattern, the upper support pattern contacting sidewalls of upper ends of the first electrodes.

Abstract: A method of inspecting a substrate is disclosed. The method is performed by a substrate-inspecting apparatus having at least one projecting module projecting a patterned light onto a substrate fixed on a stage and an inspecting module with a camera capturing an image, and inspecting a plurality of inspection regions of the substrate step by step. The method comprises, setting an inspection order of the inspecting regions according to a lengthwise direction of the substrate, estimating height displacement of a target inspection region by using a tendency information regarding at least one previous inspection region that is already inspected, adjusting height of the inspecting module by using the estimated height displacement of the target inspection region, and inspecting the target inspection region by using the inspecting module of which height is adjusted. Therefore, inspection time is reduced.

Abstract: In order to measure a measurement target on a PCB, height information of the PCB is acquired by using a first image photographed by illuminating a grating pattern light onto the PCB. Then, a first area protruding on the PCB by greater than a reference height is determined as the measurement target by using the height information. Thereafter, color information of the PCB is acquired by using a second image photographed by illuminating light onto the PCB. Then, the first color information of the first area determined as the measurement target out of the color information of the PCB is set as reference color information. Thereafter, the reference color information is compared with color information of an area except for the first area to judge whether the measurement target is formed in the area except for the first area. Thus, the measurement target may be accurately measured.

Abstract: In order to establish a lighting intensity of an inspection apparatus, an inspection board is installed in an inspection apparatus. Then, a width of a histogram of a captured image acquired through a camera of the inspection apparatus is adjusted to avoid from a dark region and a bright region. Thereafter, a lighting intensity of the inspection apparatus is adjusted by adjusting the histogram to be near a middle of a graph. Thus, a setting time of an inspection condition stored in a job file may be reduced to increase the user's convenience, and measurement error due to mis-establishment may be reduced to enhance inspection precision.

Thus, measurement time may be reduced.
