Patent number: 12260541Abstract: A soldering quality inspection method and a soldering quality inspection apparatus are provided. The soldering quality inspection method includes: acquiring an inspection image; calculating, by a processing device, a dyed area percentage of an area of a part of a soldering region in the inspection image that is dyed by a dye ink relative to an area of the soldering region, and determining whether the dyed area percentage is greater than a predetermined dyed percentage. When the dyed area percentage is determined to be equal to or less than the predetermined dyed percentage, a position under inspection is determined to be of good soldering quality, and a corresponding inspection result information is generated. When the dyed area percentage is determined to be greater than the predetermined dyed percentage, the position under inspection is determined to be of poor soldering quality, and the corresponding inspection result information is generated.Type: GrantFiled: June 29, 2022Date of Patent: March 25, 2025Assignee: MATERIALS ANALYSIS TECHNOLOGY INC.Inventors: Shang-En Wu, Keng-Chi Liang, Kuang-Tse Ho, Hung-Jen Chen

Publication number: 20070157132Abstract: A process of automatically translating a high level programming language into a hardware description language (HDL), which can use a three-stage translation mechanism to generate the HDL codes corresponding to the functions described by the high level programming language. The first stage translates source codes coded by the high level programming language into an extended activity diagram (EAD). The second stage translates the EAD into a hardware component graph (HCG). The third stage generates the respective signal connections of HDL components according to all edges of the HCG, and outputs an HDL entity and architecture to a file in a string form, thereby completing the entire translation.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 22, 2006Publication date: July 5, 2007Applicant: Tatung CompanyInventors: Fu-Chiung Cheng, Jian-Yi Chen, Kuan-Yu Yan, Shin-Hway Yu, Kuan-Yu Chen, Chieh-Ju Wang, Shu-Ming Chang, Ping-Yun Wang, Li-Kai Chang, Chin-Tai Chou, Chi-Huam Shieh, Ming-Shiou Chiang, Nian-Zhi Huang, Hung-Chi Wu
