Abstract

Recently, LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) has been replaced by OLDE (Organic Light Emitting Diode) in high resolution display industry. In the process of OLDE production, it inspects defective products by sending a signal using a probe during OLED panel inspection. At this time, the cause of the detection of failure is divided into two. One is the self-defect of the OLED panel and the other is the poor contact occurring in the process of contact between the two. The second case is unknown at the time of testing, which increases the time for retesting. To this end, we made a system that can identify in real time whether the probe is in contact during the inspection. A contact probe unit was designed for the system, and a stage system was implemented. An inspection system was constructed through S / W and circuit configuration for actual inspection. Finally, a system that can check contact and non-contact in real time was constructed.
