Abstract

Almost every commonly used electronic device relies on a Printed Circuit Board (PCB) produced through Surface-Mount Technology (SMT). Thanks to advancements that have significantly reduced the size of electronic components, PCBs have dramatically decreased in size. Consequently, it is crucial to conduct the application and examination of solder paste during SMT with a strong emphasis on speed and precision. This research survey delves into an analysis of Solder Paste Inspection (SPI) methods, drawing insights from more than 30 research papers spanning several decades. Initially, the survey identifies various PCB defect detection methods and assembles relevant papers for each approach. Subsequently, it provides a brief assessment of these papers, comparing their algorithms, performance, advantages, and challenges. This comprehensive overview aims to offer fresh perspectives to researchers and readers interested in gaining a deeper understanding of the latest developments in solder paste inspection and the detection of defects in PCBs.
