In this presentation we will cover the manufacturing of the most challenging surface mount parts to assemble and inspect today: LEDs, BGAs, and QFNs. The presentation will focus on the pitfalls of manufacturing and inspecting PCBs with these devices and solution to the technical challenges encountered by luminaire integrators and contract manufacturers. This presentation is targeted at manufacturing, process, and quality personnel responsible for designing; implementing and/or controlling the surface mount device application and inspection process. Those personnel responsible for training operators and technicians to perform assembly inspection or control the manufacturing process would also benefit from this presentation.
