vVision AOI software verification station displays defect images and features. AOI results are verified and an evaluation is made. Inspection data can be used for various evaluations, including statistical process control. vVerify customizes configuration of the displayed information regarding selection and positioning of the additional images. Ninety-five percent of defects can be directly classified with the defect image transferred from the AOI without reference to actual board. In ValidCompareMode, a previously validated good image is offered for comparison to each defect image. Defect location and additional information can be displayed on a second monitor or through the shift key.

Shrouded male pin connectors are for frequently mated interconnects and blind mate conditions. Double row connectors come in 4- to 64-pin configurations, in through-hole and surface mount termination styles. Shroud extends above pins to limit misalignment between connectors during mating and de-mating. PTH and SMT versions are dual-row with 0.100" spacing pin-to-pin and row-to-row. Connector body is molded from high-temperature thermoplastic with thermal stability, chemical resistance and flammability rating of UL94 V-0. Pins are made from precision-machined brass. Engaging leads are 0.030" in diameter, 0.142" long and gold-plated. Are RoHS compliant and suitable for Pb-free reflow.
