back

pick position ~

The physical positions where the pick-and-place head picks up devices such as

at the input media and at sockets.

PLC Controller ~

Taping Module toggle switches

PNP ~

Pick and Place. Also referred to as P&P.

PNP Head ~

The Pick and Place Head controlled by the Gantry for moving devices between

sockets and media.

PNP Taping Head ~

The pick and place head on the Tape Output Module.

pocket tape ~

The pocketed film that carries the devices. This term usually implies that the

cover tape has been removed. Also called device pocket tape.

Power Panel ~

Panel on the back of the PS Machine where AC power and air are connected.

probe ~

A tube attached to the pick and place head that picks up, carries, and releases

devices. Usually a probe has a rubber tip on the end that allows it to create a

good vacuum seal on the device.

Programmer

A FlashCORE or Universal assembly that accepts Socket Adapters and programs

the devices.

programming ~

The process of electronically writing data into a device. (Burning is another term

used to describe this operation.) “Input devices” are usually blank or un-pro-

grammed; “output devices” are usually programmed devices.

programming mod-

ule

Module that contains the programming electronic circuit boards required to pro-

gram a device in the socket.

A designation used to indicate the programmer closest to the vision camera, or

its label.

QFP ~

Quad Flat Pack.

A high-speed memory location in a computer's CPU.

Reject Tray

A tray or box that holds the rejected devices. May also be call a Reject Tray.

Safety Shield ~

One of the plastic, hinged doors that allow access to the workspace. See also,

Access doors.

SCFM ~

Standard Cubic Feet per Minute, a measurement of flow.

SHCS ~

Socket Head Cap Screws

semiconductor ~

A programmable integrated circuit. Also called “devices,” they are made of a

material whose electrical conductivity is between that of a conductor and that of

an insulator.

Servo Motor Ampli-

fiers

SHCS ~

Socket-Head Cap Screw
