  • Patent number: 9046498
    Abstract: An apparatus for inspecting a board is shown. The board inspection apparatus includes at least one illuminating module, an imaging lens, a first beam splitter, a first camera, and a second camera. The illuminating module provides light to an inspection board and the imaging lens transmits a light reflected from the inspection board. The first beam splitter transmits a portion of the light transmitted from the imaging lens and reflects the rest of the transmitted light. The first camera image-captures by receiving the light that transmits the first beam, and the second camera image-captures by receiving the light reflected from the first beam splitter. Therefore, by using one imaging lens to inspect the inspection board, the decrease in accuracy caused by the different optical axis or magnification may be prevented.

  • Patent number: 8754936
    Abstract: A three dimensional shape measurement apparatus includes an illumination section and a grating transfer unit. The illumination section includes a light source unit generating a light and a grating unit changing the light generated by the light source unit into a grating pattern light having a grating pattern. The illumination section illuminates the grating pattern light onto a measurement target in a predetermined direction. The grating transfer unit transfers the grating unit in a predetermined inclination direction with respect to an extension direction of the grating pattern and an arrangement direction of the grating pattern. Thus, manufacturing cost may be reduced, and the three dimensional shape measurement apparatus may be easily managed.

  • Publication number: 20130314757
    Abstract: A wavelength-changeable laser apparatus including a laser light source, a collimating lens, a diffraction grating, and a mirror is shown. The laser light source provides a laser light. The collimating lens collects the laser light provided from the laser light source and providing a light that is substantially parallel. The diffraction grating diffracts the light provided from the collimating lens. The mirror reflects the light provided from the diffraction grating back to the diffraction grating, a rotation axis rotatable within a predetermined range of a tuning angle being set therein so that a wavelength of the laser light is changed in a mode hopping form, the minor rotating based on the rotation axis serving as a pivot point. Therefore, a wavelength change speed may be increased and a stability of wavelength change may be improved.

  • Publication number: 20130088905
    Abstract: Disclosed is a dead-time compensation method of a 3-phase inverter using an SVPWM scheme. The dead-time compensation method includes generating a switching signal having dead-time with respect to the power semiconductor switches of the upper and lower arms in order to obtain a predetermined output through the SVPWM scheme, detecting medium phase current from each phase current output through the switching signal, determining polarity of the medium phase current, and generating a switching signal by calculating switching time in order to compensate for time to apply effective voltage according to the polarity of the medium phase current. Through the dead-time compensation method, the distortion of the output voltage and the reduction of voltage having a fundamental wave in the output voltage, which are caused by the dead-time, are minimized through the switching of compensating for the time to apply effective voltage based on the polarity of the load current.

  • Patent number: 8268651
    Abstract: The invention provides a side-view LED having an LED window opened to a side to emit light sideward. A pair of lead frames each act as a terminal. An LED chip is attached to a portion of the lead frame and electrically connected thereto. A package body houses the lead frames and has a concave formed around the LED chip. Also, a high reflective metal layer is formed integrally on a wall of the concave. A transparent encapsulant is filled in the concave to encapsulate the LED chip, while forming the LED window. In addition, an insulating layer is formed on a predetermined area of the lead frames so that the lead frames are insulated from the high reflective metal layer. The side-view LED of the invention enhances light efficiency and heat release efficiency with an improved side-wall reflection structure.
