Resumo:
Quality control in electronic system manufacturing is achieved mainly through system testing. Device miniaturization and multilayer Printed Circuit Boards have increased the electronic circuit test complexity considerably and processes based on manual inspections have become outdated and inefficient. The concept of Industry 4.0 has enabled the manufacturing of customized products based on customers’ demands, which demands a high degree of flexibility in production processes, with low cost and without placing numerous test points. In this paper, we propose two automated test solutions based on machine learning and thermographic analysis. We propose deploying autoencoders and random forest in two different manners to detect firmware or hardware anomalies based on the circuit board’s temperature signature. We validate our proposal using two firmware versions running independently on the test board. We obtained an anomaly detection rate above 98%. In the random forest approach, we require all data classes for training, whereas the autoencoder only requires the reference class, which is expected in real scenarios.
