Patent Number: US 2020/0148484 A1 Inventors: William H. White, Alain A. Mangiat, Josue E. Salazar Vanoye, Colin D. Harper Abstract The operator may first place a blank device in a first socket in a first site. The APS may self-teach the position and orientation of...
US Patent: Electronic apparatus and bit error rate tolerance method for programming non-volatile memory devices
US20090287969A1: The present invention provides an apparatus and method for using a bit error rate tolerance (BERT) technique for high-speed programming of non-volatile electronic memory devices.
US Patent: In-line program system for assembly printed circuit board
An in-line programming (ILP) system and method for programming and testing programmable integrated circuit devices (PICs) and performing the assembly of printed circuit board assemblies (PCBAs). Printed circuit boards enter and leave the ILP system on a conveyor system.
US Patent: Method of programming a programmable electronic device by an in-line programming system
An in-line programming (ILP) system and method for programming and testing programmable integrated circuit devices (PICs) and performing the assembly of printed circuit board assemblies (PCBAs). Printed circuit boards enter and leave the ILP system on a conveyor system. PICs are loaded into the ILP system, and the ILP system automatically programs and tests the PICs and places them onto the PCBs as the PCBs arrive on the conveyor.
US Patent: Pick and place teaching method and apparatus for implementing the same
Systems and methods for teaching a location in a device programming apparatus. The X, Y, Z and angle coordinates of a pick and place nozzle are initialized, and the nozzle is moved in the X and Y coordinates to a position above the device in the location to be taught. The new X and Y coordinates of the nozzle are stored to a memory along with the initial angle coordinate.
