ABSTRACT:
A method of inspecting an electronic device soldered on a circuit board including the steps of (a) observing an electronic device to be inspected using a camera; (b) judging whether the electronic device is properly mounted, on the basis of the observation conducted in step (a); (c) observing the soldering state of the electronic device which has been judged in step (b) to be properly mounted using the camera; (d) judging whether said electronic device is properly soldered, on the basis of the observation conducted in step (c); (e) irradiating a laser beam toward a soldered portion of an electronic device which has been judged in step (d) to be improperly soldered; (f) receiving a laser beam reflected from the soldered portion and measuring a shape of the soldered portion using the received laser beam; and (g) judging whether the electronic device is properly soldered on the basis of the measurement conducted in step (f).
