Assembly Precautions for the Nichia 123 Series LEDs 4-5. Imaging-based Automatic Inspection 1. Nichia recommends using the electrodes as a reference to locate the center of the LED. 2. If the imaging device has trouble detecting/recognizing the electrodes, adjust the settings (i.e. the brightness of the light, etc.) of the pick- Electrode Location and-place machine.

6-3. Placement Accuracy in x and y Directions Nichia evaluated the placement accuracy of the reflow-soldered LEDs in the x and y directions from the center of the soldering pad pattern using different solder volumes. The amount of the deviation from the center of the soldering pad pattern in the x and y directions are described as ∆x and ∆y respectively.
