  • Patent number: 11978195
    Abstract: There is provided an inspection method that includes determining, as a reference blur component, the magnitude of the blur component of a range, the range being a range where a number of first inspection images among the plurality of inspection images falling within the range is the largest among a plurality of ranges. The inspection method includes correcting, based on the reference blur component, a second inspection image among the plurality of inspection images having the magnitude of the blur component falling outside the range. The inspection method includes comparing the first inspection image and the corrected second inspection image with a reference image, the first inspection image having the magnitude of the blur component falling within the predetermined range, the reference image being generated in advance for the measurement object.

  • Patent number: 10608147
    Abstract: A package includes a resin molded body having a side wall provided between a first side and a second side to surround a recess portion which has a bottom portion on the second side. The bottom portion of the recess portion includes an element mount region provided in a vicinity of the side wall and a wire connection region separated from the element mount region. The element mount region has a polygonal outer peripheral shape having corners and diagonals connecting two of the corners when viewed in the height direction. An area of the wire connection region is smaller than an area of the element mount region when viewed in the height direction. The wire connection region is provided on an extension of one of the diagonals passing through one of the corners of the element mount region to face toward the adjacent to one of the corners.
