Patent JP-4351394-B2 (JP)
IPC: H04N5/262
Filed: 2000-01-24
Granted: 2009-10-28
Abstract: A method of non-linear and linear scale-up or scale-down image resolution conversion of digital images. The method is based on using non-linear or linear pixel position control functions relating an output image pixel grid to an input image pixel grid, where resolution of each grid is different. The pixel position control functions enable calculation of real pixel position coordinates of output image pixels, embedded within the input image grid. A connection grid is set up as a graphical representation of using the pixel position control functions. Delta functional differences between real valued position coordinates of output pixels located in the connection grid, and neighbor pixel position coordinates located in the input image grid are defined and calculated. Linear combinations of known values of neighbor pixels in the input image grid, surrounding real valued pixel positions of output image pixels located in the connection grid, are used for calculating a new set of local coefficients for each output image pixel. A new value for each output pixel located in the output image grid is calculated by following a differential prescription for a two dimensional image using n neighbors, featuring an inner multiplication between a vector of the delta functional differences between pixel position coordinates, and a vector of the local coefficients. The method of this invention is applicable to cases of non-linear or linear, scale-up, scale-down, or mixed mode scale-up/scale-down image resolution conversion, and is extendable to a u dimensional image using v neighbors. Moreover, the method of this invention is applicable to interlaced or non-interlaced displays, featuring real time or still, digital color, grayscale, or black and white video images.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a equipment for inspecting wire bond in which bonding state at a wire bonded part can be grasped accurately even when the bonding width is wide and the bonding strength is high between a power chip and a bonding wire. SOLUTION: In a wire bond tester T, a chip 3 bonded with a wire 2 undergoes shear test by means of a shear tester 1. The shear tester 1 detects shear strength every moment while shearing a wire bonded part 2a and delivers shear strength data to a data processing computer 4. The data processing computer 4 calculates an integrated value of shear strength based on the shear strength data and grasps bonding state at the wire bonded part 2a quantitatively and accurately based on the integrated value of shear strength. Furthermore, an image processing computer grasps the bonding state at the wire bonded part 2a quantitatively based on the image of a bonding flaw picked up by means of a camera.
