Each IC has its own neural network used for defectidentification. The reason being, the pitch of IC packages vary. Also, pin height, pinconfiguration, and package technologies are different. It would be extremely difficultto find one neural network that can identify defects for all ICs with different packagetechnologies, pin configuration, etc. Also, due to limited resolution of the CCDcamera, only the defects shown in Table 1
