The Sonix Echo LS CS 10 is a scanning acoustic microscope. The Echo LS CS 10 is used for inspection applications.[1]
What it is
The Echo LS CS 10 is a scanning acoustic microscope from Sonix.[1]
How it works
General reference — not yet source-verifiedScanning acoustic microscopes operate by focusing high-frequency ultrasound into the sample and capturing the reflected echoes. The transducer scans across the surface in a raster pattern, and the time-of-flight and amplitude of the reflections are recorded to generate an image of the internal structure. Differences in acoustic impedance at material boundaries produce contrast, revealing faults.
Where it fits in the process flow
General reference — not yet source-verifiedIn semiconductor manufacturing, scanning acoustic microscopes are typically employed after packaging and assembly steps such as molding, wire bonding, or flip-chip attachment. The inspection verifies that no harmful voids, delaminations, or cracks have formed during these thermal and mechanical processes. The tool is commonly used before final electrical test or reliability screening.
Applications
General reference — not yet source-verifiedApplications of scanning acoustic microscopes include inspecting molded plastic packages for internal delamination, analyzing solder joint integrity, and checking ceramic substrates and MEMS devices for structural defects. The method is also applied in optoelectronics, power modules, and other fields requiring non-destructive internal imaging.
