    Abstract: A RF linear electron accelerator system for generating a beam of accelerated electrons bunched in pulses having different energy spectra from pulse to pulse. The system is operable to generate a beam of high energy X-rays from such beam of accelerated electrons, using a conversion target, with pulses of the X-ray beam having energy spectra which are different from X-ray pulse to X-ray pulse. Preferably, the pulses of the electron beam have energy spectra which alternate from pulse to pulse and, correspondingly, the pulses of the X-ray beam have energy spectra which alternate from pulse to pulse. Also preferably, the current of electrons injected into the system's accelerating section and the frequency of the pulse RF power supplied to the accelerating section are changed in a synchronized manner to generate the electron beam. The system is employable in an inspection system for discriminating materials present in containers by atomic numbers.

    Abstract: The invention provides an automatic system and method using x-ray inspection to image arrays of electrical interconnections on electronic devices. The electron beam of a rotating anode X-ray tube is deflected relative to the anode to cause emission of x-rays from different regions of the anode at different times. The x-ray tube is located at an inspection station for the electronic devices and disposed to irradiate a first part of the array of interconnections with x-rays emitted from a first region of the anode and to irradiate a further part of the array of interconnections with x-rays emitted from another region of the anode. X-rays emerging from the array of interconnections are detected and used to image part at least of the array in order to automatically register interconnection integrity failures and/or detect a performance trend in the formation of the connections. Typically, the arrays of electrical interconnections are established between a ball grid array on the underside of an electronics package and an array of blobs of solder paste on a printed circuit board.
