Abstract :
A laser triangulation range sensor mounted on a coordinate measuring machine was used to measure thermally induced deformations in a circuit module. The module was housed in an environmental test chamber with optical access for the laser probe and measurements were made over a 25-125°C range with an estimated accuracy of ±5 μm. The results show relative 3-D displacements of circuit module components which could cause failure of the module under thermal stress
